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 else can I help you with?
Which element out of Hydrogen Carbon Oxygen Sulfur and Nitrogen is not found in carbohydrates?
You shouldn't find nitrogen or sulphur in carbohydrates. Carbohydrates only contain carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.
What is the carbon hydrogen oxygen ratio in proteins?
The carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen ratio in proteins can vary depending on the specific amino acid composition of the protein. On average, the ratio is approximately 1:1.5:0.5, meaning there are slightly more hydrogen atoms than carbon atoms and half as many oxygen atoms as carbon atoms. This ratio reflects the elemental composition of amino acids, which are the building blocks of proteins.
Is hydrogen found in carbohydrates?
Yes, hydrogen is found in carbohydrates. Carbohydrates are composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms. Hydrogen plays a crucial role in the structure of carbohydrates and provides energy when broken down through chemical reactions in the body.
Are carbon hydrogen and oxygen carbohydrates?
No. On their own they are elements. Carbohydrates do consist of carbon hydrogen and oxygen, but these elements can combine to make other compounds as well.
What main elements make up carbohydrates and lipids?
Carbohydrates are made up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, with a ratio of 1:2:1, while lipids are composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, but with a higher proportion of carbon and hydrogen compared to oxygen. Lipids also contain fatty acids and glycerol as their main building blocks.
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 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 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 chemical elements are found in carbohydrates usually ratio 121?
Carbohydrates consist of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, usually in a ratio of 1:2:1 as: (C1H2O1)n
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.
Do carbohydrates contain mostly carbon and hydrogen with some oxygen but in no specific ratio?
No. Carbohydrates are carbon with water (most of the time). The ratio is 1 carbon to 1 hydrogen and 2 oxygens. The name does tell you: carbo- (carbon) + hydrate (water). So the generic formula is CHO2.I think you have it backwards. The general formula for a carbohydrate is CH2O, not CHO2.
What type of organic molecule has a 121 ratio of carbon hydrogen and oxygen?
Glucose has C:H:O in the ratio 1:2:1. Its molecular formula is C6H12O6.
What is carbohydrates build of?
CHO carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen Usually in a ratio of (CH2O)n...
What is the ratio of carbon hydrogen and oxygen atoms in carbohydrates?
It varies from one carbohydrate to another.
Which chemical elements are found in carbohydrates usually in the ratio 121?
Carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. A+
How does the ratio compare with hydrogen and oxgen atoms ratio in carbohydrates?
The ratio of hydrogen to oxygen in carbohydrates is 2H:1O, which is the same ratio as in water molecules.
