What is the formula for carbohydrates
A
C6H12O6
B
CH3OH
C
C6H10COOH
D
MgSO4.10H20
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Glucose is a simple sugar with six carbon atoms and one aldehyde group. This monosaccharide has a chemical formula C6H12O6. It is also known as dextrose.

Detailed explanation-2: -Glucose is a simple sugar monosaccharide having two isoforms, alpha and beta, with a chemical structure of C6H12O6 that acts as an energy source for both plants and animals by reacting with oxygen, generating carbon dioxide and water, and releasing energy.

Detailed explanation-3: -Glucose is a 6-carbon structure with the chemical formula C6H12O6.

Detailed explanation-4: -Answer and Explanation: (A) The chemical formula of fructose can be written as C6(H2O)6 C 6 ( H 2 O ) 6 and this formula demonstrates how a carbohydrate can be thought of as “carbon plus water” because it seems like fructose is composed of six carbon atoms and six water molecules.

Detailed explanation-5: -Monosaccharide: The most basic, fundamental unit of a carbohydrate. These are simple sugars with the general chemical structure of C6H12O6. Simple Carbohydrates: One or two sugars (monosaccharides or disaccharides) combined in a simple chemical structure.
