In liquid water does the hydrogen atoms slide past the oxygen atoms easily?

No, because the hydrogen atoms are slightly positive and the oxygen is slightly negative they are attracted to each other by something called hydrogen bonds. It actually gives the water a sticky quality called cohesion.

What is liquid compound that contains two atoms of hydrogen and one of oxygen?
water
How come oxygen atoms easily combine with two hydrogen atoms?
Oxygen's high electronegativity draws the weaker electronegativity of hydrogen, so that oxygen's valance shell, needing two electrons to fill it attracts the electrons of two hydrogens.
Which two atoms are most common in the human body?
By atoms: hydrogen, oxygen, and carbon By mass: oxygen, carbon, hydrogen
What atoms are found in a glucose molecule?
Glucose is a carbohydrate, which means it contains carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Specifically, glucose contains 6 carbon, 6 oxygen, and 12 hydrogen atoms.
What kind of charge would the hydrogen atoms have compared to the oxygen atoms?
Oxygen -2 Hydrogen +1
What is liquid compound that contains two atoms of hydrogen and one of oxygen?
water
When two hydrogen atoms bond with two oxygen atoms?
We get hydrogen peroxide, with chemical formula H2O2. Each molecule consists of two hydrogen and two oxygen atoms. Hydrogen peroxide is a colourless liquid at room temperature and decomposes at high temperatures to water and oxygen gas.
What are the atoms in an ice cube?
H2O (hydrogen & oxygen).
What atoms look like in liquid?
An atom is too tiny to be in a liquid . . . some atoms are the building blocks of liquids, though. For instance, the atoms of hydrogen and oxygen work together to form water, which can be a liquid.

How many hydrogen atoms and oxygen atoms are in hydrogen peroxide?
Hydrogen peroxide has two atoms of hydrogen and oxygen.

How many times larger is the number of hydrogen atoms then oxygen atoms in all carbohydrates?
The number of hydrogen atoms is twice the number of oxygen atoms. Glucose is C6H12O6, so there are 12 hydrogen atoms for every 6 oxygen atoms in a molecule.
Which two atoms are most common in the human body?
By atoms: hydrogen, oxygen, and carbon By mass: oxygen, carbon, hydrogen
Why if sucrose is 51.5 percent oxygen by mass and only 6.4 percent hydrogen by mass is there twice as many hydrogen atoms than oxygen atoms?
Oxygen atoms weigh more than Hydrogen atoms.

Glucose is a carbohydrate, which means it contains carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Specifically, glucose contains 6 carbon, 6 oxygen, and 12 hydrogen atoms.
What kind of charge would the hydrogen atoms have compared to the oxygen atoms?
Oxygen -2 Hydrogen +1
