What elements do Lipids Contain?
nothing <3
Name all the elements found in lipids (fats)?
sulfur, chlorine, and helium
Do lipids have a nitrogen base?
No. Lipids are composed of a "backbone" of glycerol and three carboxylic acid groups of varying length. Both glycerol and carboxylic acids contain only the elements carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.
What three elements are lipids made of?
The term "lipid" commonly refers to fats, which are known chemically as triglycerides. Triglycerides are organic molecules that contain three different types of elements: carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. But technically, lipids are a class of molecules that includes triglycerides, phospholipids, steroids, and waxes. So if you wanted to know what elements are found in lipids as a class, you'd have to allow for phosphorus as well, since phospholipids contain phosphorus in addition to carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.

What are the elements of lipid's?
Lipids is another term for fat. Lipids are chemically triglycerides.
What elements are in lipids?
Lipids are compounds, not elements. Most lipids are triacyl esters of glycerol and fatty acids. They consist of three elements mostly: Carbon, Hydrogen and Oxygen. (Sometimes Nitrogen and/or Phosphorous may be included as well)
What are the two elements lipids are made mostly of?
Lipids are mostly composed of carbon and hydrogen
Which elements is found in proteins but is not found in carbohydrates or lipids?
Proteins are nitrogen based while carbohydrates and lipids are not.
What elements are in proteins but not carbohydrates or lipids?
Nitrogen! (Although rare elements are sometimes found, too.)
What elements off the periodic are found in lipids?
There are few types of atoms that can be found in lipids. Oxygen, carbon, and hydrogen atoms are found in them, but they may also contain phosphate atoms.
What kinds of elements are lipids mostly made up of?
masses
Lipids contain the same basic elements as carbohydrates?
true
How is carbon and lipids simliar?
They are not similar. Carbon is an element and lipids are organic compounds which contain the elements carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.
