"Wood alcohol" is formally known as methanol, which has a molecular formula of CH3OH. Adding the explicit subscript 3 present for the first occurrence of the H symbol for hydrogen in the formula to the implicit subscript 1 for the second occurrence of the symbol for hydrogen shows that each molecule of methanol contains 4 hydrogen atoms.
166 millon atoms
also how many atoms of Oxygen does it have
One oxygen atom is in each alcohol molecule. This is true of methyl (wood) alcohol, ethyl, propyl or isopropyl alcohol and all of the alcohols based on a simple hydrocarbon chain (acyclic alcohols).

Wood alcohol, also known as methanol, is composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms. Its chemical formula is CH3OH.
"Wood alcohol" is more systematically named methanol, has the molecular formula CH4O, and contains the elements carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.
No it is a chemical compound, methanol, CH3OH
Alcohol is a compound of Hydrogen, Oxygen and Carbon. in the case of wood alcohol it has methylated spirits it is derived from wood or wood products such as cellulose. Wood Alcohol, of football song fame, is NOT intended for human consumption, and one glass could cause total blindness in some cases, talk of blind drunk It is no laughing matter, Ok for paints, not people,... as we too become Denatured. Leave it alone!
Wood alcohol is Methanol, or methyl alcohol. Its chemical structure is: CH3-OH. That breaks down to C, H, H, H, H, O = 6 atoms.
Wood contains quite a few atoms such as carbon, hydrogen and oxygen which are combined together to make compounds such as celluose.
Pure wood alcohol is methanol, but as all alcohols are hygroscopic it cannot exist long in that state but will always be mixed with some water.Wood alcohol sold in a store may contain additives or contaminants also.
There are many atoms in a sample of carbon, although there are many different particles in that atom. Adfditional answer You may actually be asking "Is carbon made of only one TYPE of atom?". Answer - they are all carbon atoms but there is more than one type of carbon atom. The different ypes are known as isotopes. Most elements have several isotopes. (Don't confuse an isotope with an allotrope, e.g. diamond is an allotrope of carbon but itself can be made of several isotopes of carbon)
