What vitamin is the similar to iron?
vitamin c
Does vitamin C have oxygen to hydrogen bonds making it similar to water?
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) does contain oxygen and hydrogen atoms, like water, but its molecular structure is different. Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin with a different chemical composition and function than water. The molecular structure of vitamin C contains carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen atoms but is not solely composed of oxygen and hydrogen.
What carboxylic acid and alcohol make up vitamin c?
The synthesis of vitamin C begin with glucose ! See the link below.
Structure of ascorbic acid?
Vitamin C
Is vitamin C the same as sugar?
Vitamin C is absorbed by the body as well as sugar, however vitamin C is an acid (ascoribic acid) where as sugar is a carbohydrate. More simply, a glucose. So no, vitamin C is nothing like sugar at all.
How Fermentation of glucose forms vitamin c?
Nope. It forms ethanol (the stuff that gets you drunk). Vitamin C is formed in an extremely complicated biochemical pathway.

Why is vitamin c soluble in water from its chemical structure?
Its polarity or hydrophilicity!
Why vitamin c is not a vitamin for dog?
'Normal' Vitamin C is too acidic and can often give a dog an upset stomach. You can give a Calcium based Vitamin C which I believe is called Ester C. Most animals, including dogs, make their own vitamin C in their livers from glucose. Therefore, unless a dog's liver is severely compromised, the dog will make all the vitamin C it needs whenever the need arises.
Do ants like apples or pears better?
The glucose in apples highly outweighs the amount of glucose in pears, therefore, apples have a higher sugar rate, probably making apples taste better to ants. In addition, the apples have a high vitamin C level, but pears are only high in Vitamin D, which ants can easily get from sunlight. The vitamin C and glucose levels can easily be dissolved by their gastric juice and enzymes in their saliva, once glucose and vitamin C are digested in the mouth by saliva, it will leave a sugary taste, which every ant will be probable to like.
Why can't humans produce vitamin C?
Humans lack the enzyme necessary to produce vitamin C, known as L-gulonolactone oxidase. This enzyme is required for the conversion of glucose into vitamin C in other animals, but humans have a genetic mutation that prevents this process. As a result, humans must obtain vitamin C through their diet.
