When water is broken down what happens to the oxygen and hydrogen atoms it is made of?
When water is broken down chemically the hydrogen and oxygen atoms split apart from on another and rearrange into diatomic hydrogen (H2) and oxygen (O2) molecules. 2H2O --> 2H2 + O2
What happens if you combine 2 hydrogen and 2 oxygen atoms?
You have hydrogen peroxide.
How many atoms of hydrogen and oxygen are in hydrogen peroxide?
Hydrogen peroxide has two atoms of hydrogen and oxygen.
What atoms can a water molecule be broken down into?
Water is composed of Hydrogen and Oxygen
What happens to the H and O atoms when a molecule of water is broken down?
When a water molecule is electrolysed, hydrogen and oxygen are formed. 2H2O -> 2H2 + O2
Is hydrogen atoms different from oxygen atoms?
Yes, hydrogen atoms and oxygen atoms are very different.
What are the atoms in an ice cube?
H2O (hydrogen & oxygen).
What happens when big oxygen atoms shares electron with small hydrogen atoms?
The molecule of water is formed.
When hydrogen and oxygen react to form water what happens to the atoms of the hydrogen and oxygen?
They chemically bond together t form molecules of H2O.
What is the ratio of hydrogen atoms to oxygen atoms?
ratio of hydrogen to oxygen is 2:1
How many atoms of oxygen are there in hydrogen peroxide?
hydrogen peroxide has 2 oxygen atoms
What happens to hydrogen peroxide when heated and turns into hydrogen and oxygen?
The molecule is given enough energy to allow the chemical bonds to break, splitting it into hydrogen and oxygenatoms.
How many atoms of hydrogen and oxygen are in glucose?
Glucose (C6H12O6) has 12 hydrogen atoms and 6 oxygen atoms.
How many atoms of hydrogen and oxygen is in vinegar?

What happens to oxygen when hydrogen is removed from h2o?
The oxygen atoms left behind from the water molecules join into diatomic oxygen molecules.
How do oxygen atoms compare to the atoms in hydrogen?
Oxygen atoms have a mass that is roughly sixteen times that of hydrogen. Hydrogen atoms have 1 proton and 1 electron. Oxygen atoms have 8 protons, 8 neutrons and 8 electrons.
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.
How many times larger is the number of hydrogen atoms than oxygen atoms of glucose?
Glucose has the formula C6H12O6 so there are 12 hydrogen atoms and 6 oxygen atoms. Thus, the number of hydrogen atoms is 2x the number of oxygen atoms.

Can you brake oxygen into two atoms?
Oxygen cannot be broken into two atoms unless it is an oxygen compound of oxygen. Oxygen is an element, therefore made up of atoms, and therefore atoms cannot be broken down into more atoms.
What happens when you combine 2 hydrogen atoms with one oxygen to make water?
The combination of the atoms releases heat energy.
