What are oxidation and reduction reactions?
Oxidation can be generally loss of hydrogen, addition of oxygen or loss of electrons. Reduction can be generally addition of hydrogen, loss of oxygen or addition of electrons.
Hydrogen and oxygen are what type of bonds?
Polar Covalent Bond. This is when a pair of electrons is shared between two atoms in a molecule but the electrons are not equally shared. Because the Oxygen atom has a stronger pull on the electrons than the Hydrogen, the electrons will be more drawn to the Oxygen atom.
What is oxygen gas and hydrogen gas?
They are both diatomic gases. Hydrogen will explode in oxygen to produce water.
How do the atoms of oxygen and hydrogen different?
oxygen we breathe and so the atoms are like gas and hydrogen is a molecule like air.
When hydrogen and oxygen bind to one another the electrons are pulled?
More toward oxygen
What does bonds hydrogen and oxygen?
The sharing of electrons is what bonds hydrogen and oxygen together.
Does sulfur gain electrons when combining with other elements?
It can both gain and lose electrons depending on the different elements. With hydrogen, it gains electrons to produce hydrogen sulphide and it will lose electrons with oxygen to produce sulphur oxides. Generally it will tend to gain electrons as it is in group 16 of the elements and so is quite negatively electrovalent but against a more negatively electrovalent elements it can be forced to lose electrons unwillingly as in the case of oxygen. Even though oxygen is also in group 16, sulphur is an order below oxygen and therefore less negatively electrovalent that oxygen.
True or false Hydrogen and oxygen atoms have an equal number of electrons?
False, a Hydrogen has 1 electron and Oxygen has 8 electrons
How many electrons are in the outermost energy level of an oxygen atom as it shares electrons with hydrogen atoms as part of water molecule?
In water molecules there are 2 atoms of hydrogen of and 1 atom of oxygen present. each hydrogen atom shares 1 electron with the oxygen atom. So the total number of electrons shared with oxygen are 2,total no. of electrons shared by hydrogen is 2 and the total no. of electrons shared by each hydrogen atom is 1.
How does hydrogen and oxygen make h2o?
The produce water by direct combination when hydrogen is burnt in oxygen.
What are oxidation and reduction reactions?
Oxidation can be generally loss of hydrogen, addition of oxygen or loss of electrons. Reduction can be generally addition of hydrogen, loss of oxygen or addition of electrons.
What is the final acceptor of the electrons and hydrogen's of the electron transport chain?
oxygen

What is removed in oxidation of alcohol?
OIL RIG. Oxidation is Loss, Reduction is Gain (of electrons, or of Hydrogen) Oxidation is gain of oxygen, reduction is loss of oxygen. In answer to your question, oxidation of a primary alkanol (alcohol) gives you an alkanal or aldehyde, and what is removed is an atom of H.
What gases does life produce?
Hydrogen and Oxygen.
What is oxygen gas and hydrogen gas?
They are both diatomic gases. Hydrogen will explode in oxygen to produce water.
How do the atoms of oxygen and hydrogen different?
oxygen we breathe and so the atoms are like gas and hydrogen is a molecule like air.
