How does the bond of a water molecule affect the stability of the atom?

The bond that increases the stability of atoms are Ionic and Covalent Bonds. Because Ionic Bonds can either increase stability or decrease stability. This depends on it the atom gains or loses an electron. Then Covalent Bonds shares electrons with the atoms, which would increase the stability of an atom in an element. The bonds that increase the stability of atoms are the Ionic Bonds and Covalent Bonds.

∙ 10y agoThe hydrogen is bound to oxygen, creating a "hydrogen bond." This bond has a special property where there is an imbalance of charge on the two atoms. The hydrogen will be slightly positive and the oxygen will be slightly negative. This allows one water molecule to "hydrogen bond" to a neighboring water molecule (the slight negative charge interacts with the slight positive charge). This strengthens the interaction between water molecules and is the reason for the lattice structure of ice. Also, this bond is common in protein secondary and tertiary structures.

Is a water molecule formed from 1 oxygen atom and 1 hydrogen atom?
No. The molecule for water is H2O, meaning each water molecule contains 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom.
Which atom has the largest electronegativity value?
which atom in a water molecule has the greatest electronegativity?
How much indidvidual atom are in one molecule of water?
The formula of water is H2O, showing that each molecule contains one oxygen atom and two hydrogen atoms. Therefore, each molecule contains three atoms.
Where is the density of electrons greatest in the water molecule?
The density of electrons in a water molecule is highest around/near the oxygen atom.
Molecule in a sentence?
A molecule of water contains one oxygen atom and two hydrogen atoms.
Which particles do not affect the stability of the atom?
nuetrons
Is water a atom or a molecule?
Is not a molecule or a atom it is a compound
Is water atom or molecule?
a molucle
Is a water molecule formed from 1 oxygen atom and 1 hydrogen atom?
No. The molecule for water is H2O, meaning each water molecule contains 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom.
What are two atoms that bond with a oxygen atom to form a water molecule?
two atoms that bond with a oxygen atom to form a water molecule
How does hydrogen bonding affect water molecule?
When the water freezes, the molecules within it start to expand. When the water boils, hydrogen bonding allows for a higher boiling point.
How many hydrogen atom are present in each molecule?
Per every water molecule, there are 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom. These atoms make up a water molecule.
The stability of an atom is determined by the what?
The stability of an atom is determined by the:
Why is water a molecule rather than an atom?
Water is a molecule rather than an atom because it consists of more than one atom. In fact it consists of atoms of two different elements.
What biological molecule will not mix with water?
Lipids
How many atom of each element are in each molecule?
Water molecule (H2O) has 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom.
What are the atoms in water molecule?
The water molecule, H2O, contains two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.
