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.

How many atoms of each element make up the compound sugar?

A molecule of sugar typically has 12 carbon atoms, 22 hydrogen atoms, and 11 oxygen atoms.


What is made up?

A molecule is made up of atoms that make different formulas. Each atom is a different element, so a group of different atoms will form a type of molecule, like a sugar molecule. A molecular formula would be the formula of the molecule's atoms. Like sugar= C6, (Carbon 6 Atoms) H12, (Hydrogen 12) O6. (Oxygen 6) C6H12O6 A molecule is made up of electrons and protons.


Is a molecule composed of a single or multiple atoms?

When two (or more) atoms get together...they make a molecule! Everything from Oxygen to those insanely complicated names on the back of shampoo bottles are molecules made of atoms.


What is the subscripts of a chemical equation?

The amount of atoms of each element that make up a single molecule.


How is a molecule differ from an atom?

Atoms make up stable molecules. An atom is a single atom of an element. For example an atom of Helium(He) A molecule is two or more atoms bonded together. So hydrogen in its natural state of H2 is a molecule containing two hydrogen atoms. Another example is H2O which contains to atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen.


How many atoms of hydrogen make up sugar?

In table sugar (C12H22O11) there are 22 hydrogens in this disacharide. In monosacharides ther are normally 12 H's (C6H12O6)


What is the difference between the examples of atoms and molecules?

Atoms are individual particles that make up all matter, while molecules are groups of atoms bonded together. For example, a single oxygen atom is an atom, but when two oxygen atoms bond together, they form an oxygen molecule.


How can you make a hydrogen molecule?

We can make a hydrogen molecule by fusing 2 hydrogen atoms....!!


What are the 3 atoms that make a molecule?

Water is made up of two different elements and three atoms their are two atoms of hydrogen and their is one atom of oxygen, which forms (makes) water or H2OH2 + O --> H2O


Do two atoms of oxygen make a molecule of oxygen?

No, two atoms of oxygen do not make a molecule of oxygen. A molecule of oxygen is O2, which consists of two oxygen atoms chemically bonded together.


Can a particle be a single atom?

Answer: No, it takes millions, if not billions of atoms to make one grain of sugar. No. The smallest "particle" of sugar would be a molecule. The individual atoms are carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, but they no longer have the properties of the sugar.


Do 2 atoms make a molecule?

Yes, it is a diatomic element, a diatomic molecule. Some examples:O2 gasBr2 liquidI2 solid
