Why can oxygen be described as an atom and a molecule?

Oxygen is an element and so has its own unique type of atom. However, oxygen usually does not exists as individual atoms, but rather as O2 molecules, that is, molecules containing 2 oxygen atoms. O3 is another type of oxygen molecule know as ozone.


How many atoms are there in a molecule of oxygen?

There are 2 atoms and 3 molecules in oxygen.


Are there 2 of the same molecules in water?

Yes. Two Hyrdrogen molecules, one Oxygen molecule. The Hydrogen molecules are each bound to Oxygen at an odd angle making the molecule polar


How many atoms are in two oxygen molecules?

4 atoms in total. Oxygen is a diatomic molecule, so there is 2 atoms per molecule.


How many oxygen molecules are produced for the splitting of two molecules when electricity flows through water?

2 water molecules form one molecule of oxygen.


How many atoms of oxygen are in 2NO2?

In the chemical formula 2NO2, there are two nitrogen dioxide (NO2) molecules. Each NO2 molecule contains two oxygen atoms. Therefore, in 2NO2, there are 2 molecules × 2 oxygen atoms/molecule = 4 oxygen atoms in total.


How many molecules of oxygen are needed to burn one molecule of fuel?

That depends on the fuel. Natural gas, methane, needs 2 molecules of oxygen, but gasoline, octane, needs 17 molecules of oxygen.


How muck oxygen does water have in it?

Water(H2O) has 2 molecules of hydrogen and 1 molecule of Oxygen. Water has 88.89% oxygen by weight.


What is the chemical composition WATER?

2 hydrogen molecules, 1 oxygen molecule (H2O)


How many atoms are in an oxygen molecule O2?

Molecules of oxygen exist in two relatively stable allotropes: breathable oxygen with the formula O2, and ozone with the formula O3. The little number indicates that these molecules are composed of (respectively) two or three oxygen atoms.


When 2 hydrogen molecules react with 1 oxygen molecule what is the product?

The product of this reaction is 2 water molecules (H2O).


How do you calculate the number of oxygen atoms in 2 NO3 molecules?

To calculate the number of oxygen atoms in 2 NO3 molecules, you first need to determine the total number of oxygen atoms in one molecule of NO3, which is 3 oxygen atoms. Since you have 2 NO3 molecules, you would multiply the number of oxygen atoms in one molecule by the number of molecules, giving you a total of 6 oxygen atoms.
