Fat is not a chemical compound, so it does not have a chemical equation, so it does not have a measured amount of hydrogen. (Sugar has 12 hydrogen atoms.)

What elements make up fats?

A person's body fat percentage is the total weight of the person's fat divided by the person's weight and consists of essential body fat and storage body fat. Essential body fat is necessary to maintain life and reproductive functions. The percentage for women is greater than that for men, due to the demands of childbearing and other hormonal functions. Essential fat is 1-3% in men, and 8--12% in women[1]. Storage body fat consists of fat accumulation in adipose tissue, part of which protects internal organs in the chest and abdomen. The minimum recommended total body fat percentage exceeds the essential fat percentage value reported above. A number of online tools are available for calculating estimated body fat percentage.Some regard the body fat percentage as the better measure of an individual's fitness level, as it is the only body measurement which directly calculates the particular individual's body composition without regard to the individual's height or weight. The widely-used body mass index (BMI) provides a measure that allows for the comparison of individuals of different heights in terms of their weight. Due to differences in body composition the BMI is not necessarily an accurate indicator of body fat, for example individuals with greater than average muscle mass will have a higher BMI. The thresholds defining the line between 'normal' and 'overweight', or 'obese', are sometimes disputed for this reason.

No. Sugar is a carbohydrate, and an important source of energy for the body. However, if you consume more sugar than your body can burn, the partially metabolized glucose (sugar) molecules reassemble into fatty acids. In other words, if you eat more sugar than your body needs, it will become fat.

Why Does fat free milk have more sugar in it than low fat milk?

Fat-free milk has slightly more sugar than low-fat milk primarily due to the removal of fat, which alters the perception of sweetness. When the fat is removed, the milk's natural sugars, primarily lactose, become more pronounced, giving it a sweeter taste. Additionally, some brands may add extra ingredients to enhance flavor in fat-free versions, potentially contributing to higher sugar content. However, the overall difference in sugar content is generally minimal.

Does sugar convert to fat?

Yes. Your body uses enzymes and chemical processes to store a small part of the energy from sugars into your fat cells. For this to happen, you would have to eat more calories in a day than you burn off. Sugar does more than help create a little bit of fat. It also tricks your body into thinking you are more hungry than you should be.
