Oxygen exists as oxygen gas, which is commonly known as O2. Oxygen goes through double covalent bonding with another oxygen atom to form oxygen gas. Oxygen gas, in itself, is known as 1 molecule.

1 mole of oxygen contain Avogadro number (NA) of molecules.

i.e., 6.023 x 1023 molecules

How many molecules in 38 grams of oxygen gas?

38 grams oxygen gas (1 mole O2/32 grams)(6.022 X 1023/1 mole O2) = 7.2 X 1023 molecules of oxygen gas -------------------------------------------------


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 many water molecules (H2O) can be produced from 6 molecules of hydrogen gas (purple) reacting with 6 molecules of oxygen gas (turquoise)?

6H2 + 6O2 ---> 6H2O + 3O2 This reaction leave excess unreacted oxygen behind.


How many oxygen molecules are there in in 4 g of oxygen?

Assuming you mean oxygen gas, the number of molecules can be found by first finding the number of moles = mass of oxygen (4g) / Molecular mass of oxygen gas (32 g mol-1) This tells us there is 0.125 mol of oxygen gas present. The number of molecules present is given by the number of moles x the avogadro constant (6.022x10^23) So the number of oxygen gas molecules present is equal to 0.125 x 6.022x10^23 = 7.5275x10^22 molecules

Explain why you call oxygen an element even though oxygen gas in the atmosphere is made from molecules?

oxygen gas are indeed composed of molecules... ...molecules of O2 meaning every molecule of oxygen is usually two elemental oxygen atom put together


Is oxygen gas made of molecules?

Yes. The molecules have the formula O2.


What do oxygen molecules contain?

Molecules of oxygen contain 2 oxygen atoms. Oxygen is a diatomic gas, meaning that it exists in pairs of atoms when in pure gas form. Other diatomic gasses include hydrogen and nitrogen.


If 4.8g of oxygen gas is completely converted to ozone how many molecules of ozone would be produced?

4.8/16 moles of oxygen atoms converts to 1.6/16 moles of ozone molecules.


How many oxygen molecules are in 9.1 L of oxygen gas at STP?

at stp 1 mole of a gas contains 22.4 litres. 9.1/22.4= .40625 moles o2. 1 mole of a gas contains 6.022E23 molecules so .40625 moles x 6.022E23 = 2.4464325E23 molecules, but you have to multiply by two due to it being diatomic, so answer x 2 = 4.892875E23 molecules
