Table sugar has the chemical name and formula of sucrose (C12H22O11). For every one mole of sucrose, 12 moles of carbon are contained. In order to calculate moles you take 12 multiplied by Avogadro's number of 6.0221413 x 10^23. That would equal 7.2x10^24 atoms of carbon per molecule of sucrose.
If you're asking for the number of atoms, it would be 45. Chemical Formula: C12H22O11
You have answered the question for yourself. The formula is C12H22O11 The number after each elemental symbol , tells of the number of atoms of that element in the molecule. Hence Carbon (C) has 12 atoms Hydrogen (H) has 22 atoms Oxygen (O) has 11 atoms. YES!!!Its a 'big' complex molecule. Unfortunately, I cannot draw it in Answers to show the atomic arrangements.
there are 11 atoms
There are 22 atoms of hydrogen, 12 atoms of carbon, and 11 atoms of oxygen.
The chemical formula of table sugar (sucrose in English language) is:C12H22O11; consequently the sugar molecule contain 12 atoms of carbon, 22 atoms of hydrogen and 11 atoms of oxygen.

There are 11 oxygen atoms in a molecule of table sugar.
One molecule of table sugar (sucrose) contains 11 oxygen atoms.

I know that table salt has no hydrogen atoms; NaCl2
That depends on what kind of sugar you're talking about. Table sugar, or sucrose, has the formula C12H22O11. One molecule of sucrose has 22 hydrogen atoms. Blood sugar, or glucose, has the formula C6H12O6. One molecule of glucose has 12 hydrogen atoms. Other types of sugar have different formulas. If you know the chemical formula, look at the subscript to the right of the H to see how many hydrogen atoms are in one molecule of sugar.
