What else can I help you with?
Water is a because it is formed from atoms of two elements?
Water is a COMPOUND because it is formed from atoms of two elements.
What is a substance that is formed of 2 atoms?
It's called a compound and water is an example.
Is water an atom or a element?
No water is NOT an "atom". No water is NOT an "element".
How many atoms of each element are needed to form one molecule of water?
One molecule of water is formed by combining two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.
What is an example of a molecule formed by one element?
I believe water would be an example although im not sure.
Why isnt water a element?
Water is not considered an element because it is a compound made up of two different elements, hydrogen and oxygen. An element is a substance made up of only one type of atom, whereas water contains different types of atoms bonded together.
Is water an element made up of water and oxygen atoms?
No. Water is not an element it consists of molecules made from hydrogen and oxygen
How does an element differ from a compound give an example?
An element is a substance made up of only one type of atom, while a compound is made up of more than one type of atom chemically bonded together. For example, oxygen is an element because it consists of only oxygen atoms, while water (H2O) is a compound because it contains hydrogen and oxygen atoms bonded together.
When is ice formed?
Ice is formed the atoms in water are cooled to 32 degrees or less. The atoms then slow their frenzied spinning around and harden to make dense, solid ice. Ice can only be formed by water freezing because by definition ice is water, other wise frozen juice, milk and other liquids would be ice.
Why isn't water included in the perodic table?
because water is not an element. it is a molecule made of 3 atoms...2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen. the hydrogen and oxygen are both on the table though, so in a way water is too
Is water a non-living element?
Water is a compound made up of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom (H2O), it is not considered a living element because it does not exhibit biological functions or processes. Water is essential for life, but it is not alive itself.
Which element makes up the largest percentage of all elements on earth?
water LOL. Water is NOT an "element". This is also an ambiguous question because it all depends on how you measure elements. For instance, you can measure an elements' "abundance" by mass or you can measure it by number of atoms. For instance, in water the most abundant element by mass is oxygen (85% of the mass of water), but by mole (# of atoms), it is hydrogen because water is H2O and therefore there are twice as many H atoms and O atoms in any amount of water. If you are referring to the earth's crust, then oxygen is the predominant element by mass, taking up 45% of the mass of the earth. By mole, hydrogen is the most abundant. If you include the atmosphere, then nitrogen predominates by mole, but oxygen continues to predominate by mass. This is not a simple question ;) but it DEFINITELY is NOT Water :-)
