The carbon to hydrogen to oxygen ratio in proteins is 1:1.8:0.5. This is much more specific and complicated than the same three's ratio in carbohydrates, which is 1:2:1.

What is the element in glucose?
glucose is a carbohydrate. it is made up of carbon chain and and an aldehyde group attached to the end carbon. the other carbons have hydrowyl groups attached to themcarbon, hydrogen, oxygen
What is the carbon to hydrogen ratio in carbohydrates?
Lipids are mainly long carbon chains with hydrogen on the side chains : thus the majority of the molecule has a ratio of 2 to 1 hydrogen to carbon.In the body we use fatty acids which will have only a single or a double oxygen atom at one end where the fats connect to each other (and to bind to proteins for metabolic uses). Some fats have a Phosphate bond.No fixed ratio for H:O!
What are molecules consisting of carbon hydrogen and oxygen?
Such compounds are called "carbohydrates", if they contain hydrogen atoms and oxygen atoms in an atomic ratio of 2:1, as most compounds containing only the three specified elements do.
What is oxygen to hydrogen mass ratio h2o2?
16
What is the ratio of sugar carbon atoms to oxygen?
Which sugar. There are many different sugars and the ratio can vary. If you mean sucrose, there are 12 carbons and 11 oxygens, so ratio of carbon to oxygen is 12:11
What so proteins carbohydrates and lipids have in common?
Carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Carbohydrates have a ratio of CHO of 1:2:1. Fats have CHO but with a different ratio. Proteins have CHO and nitrogen.
What are three elements that are in carbohydrate?
Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen ine the ratio of 1:2:1
What has a ratio of 1 carbon 2 hydrogen 1 oxygen?
protien
What are the important energy-storing compounds that contain only carbon hydrogen and oxygen with a carbon to hydrogen to oxygen ratio of 1 2 1?
The important energy-storing compounds that contain only carbon hydrogen and oxygen with a carbon to hydrogen to oxygen ratio of 1 2 1 are carbohydrates which have the generic formula of Cn H2n On. Glucose, the most important one has the formula of c6H12O6.
What are composed of carbon hydrogen and oxygen in a ratio of one carbon two hydrogen and one oxygen?
This is a common ratio for carbohydrate compounds, saccharides, glucosides, cellulose and starch, etc. etc.
What elements are found in carbs?
Hydrogen, Carbon and Oxygen.It is easy to remember by breaking down the word. Carbois for Carbon. Hyd is for Hydrogen and ate means Oxygen is present.
What is the ratio of atoms in monosaccharides?
The ratio of atoms in monosaccharides is 1 carbon: 2 hydrogen: 1 oxygen.
What is made of carbon hydrogen and oxygen in a 1 to 2 to 1 ratio?
carbohydrates
Which macromolecules consist of primarily carbon hydrogen and oxygen in a 121 ratio?
monosachcharides
What do amino acids have that fats and carbohydrates do not?
Lipids (that's fats/oils) are composed of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen. Carbohydrates are composed of carbon, hydrogen oxygen (just in a different ratio to lipids). However, amino acids are composed of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, AND nitrogen.
All carbohydrates are made up of what?
Consist of carbon, oxygen and hydrogen atoms, normally with a hydrogen: oxygen atom ratio of 2 to 1. Carbohydrates are technically hydrates of carbon.
What is the ratio of the four elements in proteins?
There are more than four elements in proteins : Carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, sulphur and selenium being the main six. It is not clear where you got the number 4 from and therefore which four you are asking about.
