Best Answer

Glucose is C6H12O6 which means it is made up of 6 carbons, 12 hydrogens and 6 oxygens.

Sucrose is a molecule made from one glucose and one fructose, fructose has the same components as glucose but they are arranged in a different order.

So, elements in sugar are carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.
