Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Fructose is another sugar that also has 6 carbons, 12 hydrogens, and 6 oxygen atoms.
Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: An alkane can have the chemical formula CnH2n+2 C n H 2 n + 2 if it is not cyclic and CnH2n C n H 2 n if it is cyclic. Now, if there are 6 carbon atoms in an acyclic alkane, then n = 6, and the number of hydrogen atoms is 2n+2=14hydrogenatoms 2 n + 2 = 14 h y d r o g e n a t o m s .
Detailed explanation-3: -Glucose has a chemical formula of: C6H12O6 That means glucose is made of 6 carbon atoms, 12 hydrogen atoms and 6 oxygen atoms.
