Not exactly.
Everyday sugar is sucrose, which is a disaccharide. That is a sugar which is made up of two sugar units: glucose and fructose. Glucose and fructose are monosaccharide sugars, which are the smallest unit of sugar. Glucose and fructose are both 6-carbon-sugars, or hexoses and have the same chemical formula, C6H12O6. But their molecular structures are different so that they have different properties: fructose is much sweeter than glucose.
Sucrose is produced when one molecule each of glucose and fructose combine together in a condensation reaction, a process in which one molecule of water is removed.
Thus glucose + fructose => sucrose + water
or C6H12O6 + C6H12O6 = C12H22O11 + H2O
Sodium and iron are pure elements, while sugar and oxygen are pure compounds. Air, on the other hand, is a mixture of gases and not a pure compound.
Sugar dissolved in water is a homogeneous mixture, not an element or a compound. Sugar is a compound, while water is a molecule composed of two different elements.
White cane sugar is a compound. It is made up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms bonded together in specific arrangements to form the molecule sucrose.
No, sugar water is not an element. Sugar water is a mixture composed of sugar (a compound) dissolved in water (a compound). Elements are pure substances that cannot be broken down into simpler substances.
Sugar is a chemical, organic compound.
Pure sugar is a substance (compound).
sugar (generally glucose) is a pure organic compound, not mixture.
Pure sugar is a compound, which is a pure substance. If you dissolve sugar in water, you will have a homogeneous mixture, which is a solution.
Dextrose is a pure substance.
No, sugar in a bowl is not a pure substance. Sugar is a compound composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms arranged in a specific molecular structure. As a result, sugar in a bowl is a mixture of pure sugar crystals and any impurities present.
There are many types of sugar but, if you are describing one type of sugar and not a mixture of many sugars it would be a pure substance.
Raw sugarcane is a heterogeneous compund, whereas pure sucrose (table sugar) is a homogeneous compound.
Powdered sugar is not a mixture, but a homogenous quantity of a singular molecular compound. It would only be a mixture if it contained other ingredients, for example.
No, it's a pure carbohydrate (pentose type of sugar) compound
Sodium and iron are pure elements, while sugar and oxygen are pure compounds. Air, on the other hand, is a mixture of gases and not a pure compound.
No, sugar is a pure substance, not a mixture. Sugar is a compound made up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms, and it is the same throughout, making it a homogeneous substance.
Maple sugar is almost pure sugar. Sugars are organic compounds. Please see the link.
