No.

An Oxygen Ion has a charge of 2-, which means that it has two extra electrons than an Oxygen Atom.

One atom of sodium weighs more than one atom of oxygen. Thus, one mole of sodium weighs more than one mole of oxygen.


Why in a water molecule is the oxygen atom bigger then the nitrogen atom?

First of all, there is no nitrogen in a water molecule. A water molecule consists of one oxygen atom combined with two hydrogen atoms. Also known as H2O. However, it is also true that an oxygen atom is slightly bigger than a nitrogen atom. Oxygen has one more proton, and one more electron than nitrogen does. Neutron quantities vary, since there is more than one isotope of both oxygen and nitrogen.

It is the water molecule. It is comprised of two Hydrogen atoms and one Oxygen atom. It is also a compound, because it is made up of more than one type of atom.


Does water have more hydrogen or oxygen in it?

By number of atoms it has more hydrogen, by mass it has more oxygen. Each water molecule contains two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. However, a typical oxygen atom has about 16 times the mass of a typical hydrogen atom.
