No. Sucrose has a relative sweetness of 1.0, while Splenda (Sucralose) of the same quantity is about 600 times sweeter. Fructose is the sweetest of all natural sugar types, with a relative sweetness of 1.73. Xylitol is roughly as sweet as sucrose. Glucose, which is the main component of starch, has a relative sweetness of 0.6-0.7. Of all the sugars, Lactose is the least sweet, with a relative sweetness of 0.16.

∙ 12y agoYes, sucrose is "regular" sugar (i.e., it is what you buy in bags at the store or find in sugar packets at a diner). It is made by plants, and is commonly produced from sugar cane or sugar beets. FYI, there are several other types of sugars, such as glucose, fructose (aka "fruit sugar"), maltose, lactose and trehalose.

∙ 14y agoThis is not really a physics question. But anyway, there are many types of sugar, most common are fructose, sucrose and lactose. Sugar from fruit is called fructose, and milk is called lactose. Sucrose is what is in your usual table sugar.

∙ 15y agoYes it is ordinary sugar. Click the link below for more information.

∙ 11y agoYes, sucrose is simply just plain table sugar. You may hear something similar such as sucrose syrup, which is just table sugar and water combined making a syrup.

∙ 11y agoSucrose is a natural sugar. It's not the sweetest compound, but it is one of a relatively few sweet compounds that doesn't have a foul aftertaste.

What is the by product of sucrose?
carbon and water
What do you get glucose from?
any type of sugar. fruits have fructose (fruit sugar) which your body converts to glucose, any candy or other (sweet) is going to have sugar (sucrose), which your body converts to glucose. so if you eat any plant it's going to have some fructose, fruits are higher in fructose then other plant matter, and anything with sugar gives you sucrose since sugar is sucrose. fructose and sucrose are complex sugars, and glucose is simple sugar.
During photosynthesis plants produce sugar and what?
Sugar(SUCROSE/GLUCOSE) and oxygen.
Are catalyse Maltese and sucrose enzymes?
All enzymes end in -ase. Their substrate is the base for the enzyme. For example: the sugar maltose is acted on by the enzyme maltase. Sucrose, by sucrase.
Name the three disaccharides and the enzymes that break them down into monosaccharides?
sucrose - common table sugar = glucose + fructoselactose - major sugar in milk = glucose + galactosemaltose - product of starch digestion = glucose + glucose
What sugar is table sugar?
sucrose
Is a mixture of sucrose and water a solution?
Sucrose is the name for the common sugar compound. A sucrose solution is a solution made of sugar dissolved in water.
Which sugar is NOT a reducing sugar?
Sucrose

Why is sucrose an invert sugar?
Invert sugar is a combination of fructose and glucose often mixed with sucrose.
Is sugar made up of sucrose?
Yes. In fact, sugar (the kind you put on strawberries) and sucrose are the same thing!
Where does sucrose come from?
Sucrose is a type of sugar that is found in many plants but extracted as ordinary sugar mainly from sugar cane and sugar beets.
What kind of sugar is the sucrose in Tums?
Sucrose (or saccharose) is table sugar, and is a complex sugar made from glucose and fructose units.
What is the chemical name of refined sugar?
Sucrose, glucose, dextrose, maltose, xylose, they are all white. Our table sugar is usually sucrose from sugar cane or beets. I have seen some with some dextrose mixed in. Confectioners sugar often has corn starch in it. Read the labels
What are examples of sucrose?
Table sugar is one example of sucrose.
Is glucose sugar the sugar you buy from stores?
Sucrose is ordinary table sugar; glucose is simpler and more refined than sucrose.
