There are twice the number of Hydrogen atoms than Oxygen atoms in a disaccharide.

<h3>Disaccharides</h3>

Disaccharides are carbohydrate compounds containing two monosaccharide units linked together by glycosidic bonds

Examples of disaccharides include sucrose and maltose.

The ratio of hydrogen to oxygen atoms in a carbohydrate is always a 2:1.

For example, the formula of sucrose is C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁

> The ratio of hydrogen to oxygen atoms is 2;1

Therefore, there are twice the number of Hydrogen atoms than Oxygen atoms in a disaccharide.
