How many elements and atoms does CH4 have?
There five atoms in CH4.One carbon and four Hydrogen.
How many hydrogen atoms could become a single carbon atom?
Its impossible. The carbon and hydrogen are 2 different elements, they are 2 different atoms.If hydrogen atoms connect that's going to become a hydrogen molecule.And carbon is an atom, not a molecule.
How many carbon atoms can bond to a single hydrogen atom?
Atoms of elements have a fixed number of electrons that can bond with other atoms. Carbon has 4 electrons that can bond with other atoms. So 4 hydrogen atoms can bond with one carbon atom.
How many carbon and hydrogen atoms are there in ethanol?
Ethanol has 2 carbon atoms and 3 hydrogen atoms attached to one of those carbon atoms with 2 hydrogen atoms and one hydroxyl (OH) group attached to the other - for a total of: 2 carbon atoms 6 hydrogen atoms 1 oxygen atom.
Is an atom organic?
Organic substances contain carbon and hydrogen atoms. Organic compounds are formed by bonding carbon and hydrogen atoms. There can be more elements too. An atom can never be organic.
Does methane have more carbon atom or hydrogen atoms?
HYDROGEN
What type of bond joins carbon atom to each of the hydrogen atoms?
A single (nonpolar) covalent joins the carbon atom to each of the hydrogen atoms.
What occurs during During The Dark Reactions Of Photosynthesis?
Hydrogen atoms released from water are added to carbon dioxide molecules so that carbon oxygen bonds are broken and carbon atoms can join together. Carbon dioxide consists of a carbon atom attached to two oxygen atoms. That way, a carbon atom joins two other carbon atoms. One of the hydrogen atoms joins the carbon atom and one of the hydrogen atoms joins with the oxygen atom. You end up with the carbon atom attached to four different atoms.
How many atoms of hydrogen ch4?
There are six atoms.Four hydrogen atoms and one carbon atom.
How many hydrogen atoms are there in an alkaline molecule with ten carbon atom's?
22 hydrogen atoms
What are the elements and numbers of ch4?
It has 4 Hydrogen atoms.It has one carbon atom.
How many elements and atoms does CH4 have?
There five atoms in CH4.One carbon and four Hydrogen.
Is 4 hydrogen atoms and 1 carbon atom covalent or ionic?
The combination of 4 hydrogen atoms and 1 carbon atom is a compound called methane, which has covalent bonds.
What atoms are in a molecule of methane?
there are four hydrogen atoms and one carbon atom
How many hydrogen atoms could become a single carbon atom?
Its impossible. The carbon and hydrogen are 2 different elements, they are 2 different atoms.If hydrogen atoms connect that's going to become a hydrogen molecule.And carbon is an atom, not a molecule.
In a molecule of methane how many atoms are there?
The chemical formula for methane is CH4. Then there are four hydrogen atoms and one carbon atom in each molecule, making two distinct types of atoms.
One molecule of methane has 4 atoms of hydrogen and 1 atom of what?
methane = CH4, 4 atoms of hydrogen and 1 atom of CARBON
