Water is one such molecule, being H2O. The molecules of sucrose and glucose also have the same two to one ratio of hydrogen to oxygen. Sucrose is C12H22O11, and glucose is C6H12O6.

Does glucose have twice the amount of hydrogen as oxygen?

Yes, the amount of hydrogen atoms in glucose is 12, and the amount of oxygen atoms is 6, therefore, there are two times as many hydrogen atoms than oxygen atoms in a molecule of glucose. C6-H12-O6 is the formula.


Does water have more hydrogen or oxygen in it?

By number of atoms it has more hydrogen, by mass it has more oxygen. Each water molecule contains two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. However, a typical oxygen atom has about 16 times the mass of a typical hydrogen atom.


How many times is carbon oxygen and hydrogen in sugar?

Table sugar - sucrose - contains 12 carbon atoms, 22 hydrogen atoms, and 11 oxygen atoms per molecule. Other sugars have different formulae.


Why do oxygen molecules move slowly than hydrogen molecules at the same temperature?

Two gasses at the same temperature have the same amount of average kinetic energy per molecule. Since an oxygen molecule has about 16 times the mass of a hydrogen molecule, it must move faster than a hydrogen molecule with the same kinetic energy. This is based on the equation KE=1/2MV2


Which two elements make up three-fourths of the human body?

There is sixty percent water in your body. Water is made up of oxygen and hydrogen. There are double the number of hydrogen atoms or molecules as compared to oxygen in the water. But you have the mass of oxygen atom or molecule is 16 times more than that of hydrogen atom or the molecule. In case of water hydrogen to oxygen mass is one to eight, in proportion.


How many hydrogen atoms are in 5 molecules of h2o?

it would be 5, there are two oxygen and one hydrogen in one molecule so times five would be well.. five!


Why hydrogen in water is heavier than pure hydrogen?

To clear up any confusion: water is not a mixture of hydrogen and oxygen; it is a compound. The hydrogen and oxygen are chemically bonded to each other to form a completely different substance. There are two reasons for the difference in density. First, molecules of elemental hydrogen are only weakly attracted to one another, so hydrogen exists as a gas with a lot of space between molecules. Water molecules are very strongly attracted to one another and so water exists as a liquid with much less space between molecules. Second, a water molecule contains two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. One oxygen atom has about 16 times the mass of a hydrogen atom, so most of the mass of water is actually oxygen. One water molecule is about 9 times the mass of a hydrogen molecule.


How can that the body has 10 percent hydrogen and 63 percent of the atoms are hydrogen?

Hydrogen is the lightest of all elements, having atoms that are only a fraction of the mass of all other elements. For example, an oxygen atom has about 16 times the mass of a hydrogen atom. So while a water molecule contains 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom (and water makes up most of the human body), the single oxygen atom accounts for most of the mass of the molecule.


How many hydrogen atoms are found in 5 molecules of H2O?

it would be 5, there are two oxygen and one hydrogen in one molecule so times five would be well.. five!


How many times larger is the number of hydrogen atoms then oxygen atoms in all carbohydrates?

The number of hydrogen atoms is typically twice the number of carbon atoms in carbohydrates, while the number of oxygen atoms is similar to the number of carbon atoms. Therefore, the number of hydrogen atoms is usually larger than the number of oxygen atoms in carbohydrates.


What is evidence that supports the law of constant composition?

The mass ratio of carbon to oxygen in carbon dioxide is always 3:8 In a molecule of water, the mass of oxygen is always 8 times the mass of hydrogen


How percentage of oxygen is more in water than hydrogen?

This is true for mass-%. Oxygen is 16 times heavier than hydrogen, that outfigures the double elemental ratio for hydrogen to oxygen (2:1) by factor 8 times.
