Chemistry help? carbohydrates and proteins?
compare the structures and properties of carbohydrates with those of proteins.
Answer:
Carbohydrates are composed of only Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen with there being 2 Hydrogen atoms for every 1 Oxygen atom (e.g, C6H12O6) where as proteins are composed of multiple amino acids linked together and are composed of Carbon, Oxygen, Hydrogen, Nitrogen, and Sulphur if the amino acid contains either the amino acid Cysteine or Methionine.
Carbohydrates are either simple sugars, compounds of C, H, and O; or more complex molecules of simple sugars linked through ether (-C-O-C-) bonds. Proteins are composed of alpha-amino acids, compounds of C, H, O, and N, linked through amide (-CONH-) bonds.
