The number of oxygen is more in carbohydrates than in fats, usually. For instance, the chemical structure of glucose is C6H12O6 compared with oleic acid which is C18H34O2. Carbohydrates and lipids are biomolecules that contribute to cellular and biological processes. These are important because these are the source of energy, replication and reproduction among cells.

Inga [223]

Answer: The atoms in a gas move at high speed.

The atoms in a gas spread in all directions.  

A gas is a state of matter in, which atoms remains in a constant motion, they do not stick together. They are free and can move in all directions. The gas molecules expands to fill the available space. Hence, they can change shape and volume. The gas atoms being in a molecular state moves fast in high speed to break away from each other, to remain in a free state.
