How does the number of hydrogen atoms compare to the number of oxygen atoms in ribose

Answer: Ribose C5H10O5

Explanation:

Ribose is a carbohydrates with the formula C5H10O5. This molecule is pentose monosaccharide which has linear form of H - (C=O) - (CHOH) 4-H. The hyoxyl groups lie in the same side in the form of Fischer Projections.

The number of hydrogen atoms are double in number of the oxygen atoms. The ribose sugar is found in the RNA.

It is the genetic material which is found in some of the organism that carries information from one generation to another.
