The carbohydrates have equal numbers of carbon and oxygen in their molecules. When carbohydrates are used as substrate, then the RQ will be 1, because equal amounts of carbon dioxide and oxygen are evolved and consumed. Fats and proteins contain a smaller number of oxygen atoms than carbon atoms in their molecules.
