How many bonds do hydrogen atoms have?
A hydrogen atom can form only one bond.
What is hydrogen's bond angle?
Hydrogen the molecule doesn't have a bond angle. You have to have an atom with at least two other atoms bonded to it to have a bond angle, and hydrogen has only two atoms total.
How many atoms are found in oxygen?
oxygen is an element. It is made of only atoms. So I guess 1, since 1 oxygen atom is 1 oxygen atoms. However, it has 6 protons and electrons.
Why does oxygen molecule not form a polar covalent bond?
A covalent bond is only polar if there is a difference in electronegativity between the two atoms. Since the two oxygen atoms in an O2 molecule are identical there is no such difference.
Why is Hydrogen and Fluorine cannot be central atoms in Lewis dot structurs?
To be the central atom in a compound, the atom must be able to simultaneously bond to at least two other atoms. He, F, and H cannot serve as central atoms in a Lewis structure
Which element has the greater bond energy Oxygen or Nitrogen?
The bond between nitrogen atoms in an N2 molecule is stronger than the bond between oxygen atoms in an O2 molecule. However, bond energies for the same atom vary with formulas of compounds, so that there is no answer to this question that is correct for every compound of these two elements.
How do you know what type of bond an atom has?
Atoms do not have bonds. Only compounds have bonds. it takes at least two atoms to have a bond.
Why can a carbon atom can bond easily with other atoms?
because they have only 4 valence electrons, so they can bond four times to an atom, this said they can bond with a variety of different atoms.
How many atoms are there in oxygen and what are they?
Oxygen is a gas composed of oxygen molecules. A stable oxygen molecule is made from two oxygen atoms, represented as O2.
What is the largest number of atoms a carbon atom can bond to with all triple bonds?
Carbon can only make a triple bond with 1 atom.
How many covalent bonds can oxygen form with another oxygen atom?
Because oxygen contains six valence electrons, it can allow two other oxygen (or other elements) atoms to covalently bond with it.
Does water has only one type of atom?
No, H20: 2 hydrogen atoms and an oxygen atom
What is the maximum number of atoms that a hydrogen atoms can bond with an organic compound?
Just one.
How many molecules are in one atom of oxygen?
Oxygen is, itself, an element of the periodic table. Therefore, there would only be one atom in a molecule of oxygen. However, at room temperature the gaseous atoms of oxygen are highly reactive with one another, as well as with atoms of other elements. Most oxygen atoms at room temperature will tend to bond together in groups of two, forming dioxygen (O2), the form of oxygen that we breathe.
Why do 10 oxygen atoms weigh more than 10 carbon atoms?
Because an oxygen atom has 8 protons and 8 neutrons and 8 electrons. A carbon atom has only 6 of each. So 1 oxygen atom weighs more than 1 carbon atom and therefore 10 oxygen atoms weigh more than 10 carbon atoms.
How many bonds do hydrogen atoms have?
A hydrogen atom can form only one bond.
What is hydrogen's bond angle?
Hydrogen the molecule doesn't have a bond angle. You have to have an atom with at least two other atoms bonded to it to have a bond angle, and hydrogen has only two atoms total.
