Also known as sucrose, sugar is made up of 22 hydrogen atoms, 11 oxygen atoms and 12 carbon atoms in each molecule. Sucrose is made up of two simple sugars, fructose and glucose. Sugar is a carbohydrate that has 45 atoms.
Under a microscope, a molecule of sugar looks like a cube. When cooking, acid is added to the sugar to break the cube apart. The acid breaks the sucrose down into fructose and glucose.
Sugar exists in most plants. However, it is harvested primarily from sugarcane. Sugarcane is harvested all around the world with Brazil as the world's largest producer of sugar.
Hydrochloric acid (HCl) is composed of two elements: hydrogen (H) and chlorine (Cl).
Quartz consists of silicon and oxygen (2 times as many oxygen atoms than silicon atoms).
Ca(OH)2 is a compound. It is composed of calcium (Ca), oxygen (O), and hydrogen (H) atoms chemically bonded together.
The formula for the ionic compound composed of calcium and chlorate is Ca(ClO3)2. Calcium is a group 2 element with a 2+ charge, and the chlorate ion (ClO3-) has a 1- charge. To balance the charges, two chlorate ions are needed for each calcium ion.
The cyanide ion, CN-1, is not an oxyanion: As its formula shows, it does not contain any oxygen!
simple sugars and glucose.
Glucose + Glucose = 2 Glucose units Maltose is a disaccharide
compound
Yes, a compound machine may be composed of 2 or more simple machines.
No. Simple permutations are composed of 2 factorials.
Carbohydrate type molecules can be divided into two chief sub-classifications. These are simple and complex carbohydrates. Simple carbohydrates are sugars, and complex can be healthy starches as found in vegetables.
Yes, monosaccharides can undergo hydrolysis. This process involves breaking the glycosidic bond between monosaccharide units, resulting in the breakdown of the monosaccharide molecule into its component sugar units.
Matter also may composed of one element only as Coal, Graphite and Diamond are only Carbon.
Complex sugars are compounds made up of 3 or more simple sugars. For example, glucose is a monosaccharide (1 sugar) Lactose is a disaccharide (made up of 2 sugars) Amylose is a polysaccharide (thousands of sugars in the chain) so it is considered a "complex" sugar. Glucose is one of the sugars that usually makes up a "complex" sugar.
no water is a compound composed of 2 hydrogen atoms and an oxygen atom
simple sugars known as saccharides. monosaccharide - 1 disaccharide - 2 polysaccharide - 3 or more
Carbohydrates are generally made of monosaccharides (i.e. simple sugars), like glucose (C6H12O6). As a result, the ratio of elements for carbohydrate sugars (C:H:O) would be 1:2:1.
