Carbon, Hydrogen and Oxygen are the general components of a carbohydrate.
The general formula of a carbohydrate is as follows:
Cx(H2x)Ox
*Even if it is not known that these are the components of a carbohydrate, it can be deduced from the name:
CARBO-HYD-RATE
The "carbo" refers to "carbon", the "hyd" refers to "hydrogen", and any molecule which contains "ate" at the end will ALWAYS contain oxygen.
There are many, the simplest of which is methane (CH4). They get more complex from there, such as ethane (C2H6), ethene (H2C=CH2), and so on.
Hydrocarbons
They can further be classified as alkanes alkenes and alkynes
alkanes: Saturated (only single bonds)
alkenes : double bond
alkynes : triple bonds...
its glucose.
glucose is C6 H12 O2
which of these elements must be in organic compuonds oxygen hydrogen carbon helium or iron
No, and organic compound must contain carbon and hydrogen. Lime is Calcium oxide (CaO) and contains neither of those elements.
Because it contains carbon bonded to hydrogen, the definition of an organic compound.
Phosphoric acid contains no carbon and is therefore an inorganic compound.
Oxygen and hydrogen are chemical elements.
Any molecule that contains hydrogen and carbon is an organic compound. If the molecule contains no other elements, it is also a hydrocarbon.
which of these elements must be in organic compuonds oxygen hydrogen carbon helium or iron
Yes it is an organic compound. It contains carbon and hydrogen.
No, and organic compound must contain carbon and hydrogen. Lime is Calcium oxide (CaO) and contains neither of those elements.
Protein is an organic compound because it contains carbon and hydrogen.
it is called an Organic compound
Because it contains carbon bonded to hydrogen, the definition of an organic compound.
carbon,hydrogen and oxygen
Phosphoric acid contains no carbon and is therefore an inorganic compound.
Oxygen and hydrogen are chemical elements.
An organic compound contains carbon and hydrogen bonded together. An inorganic compound does not.
If a compound is organic, then it contains any compound of carbon and another element or a radical.Source:wordnetweb.princeton.edu/perl/webwn
