Best Answer

The subscripted number following an element tells you how many atoms of that element are in that molecule. H2SO4 -> (2) hydrogen atoms, (1) sulfur atom, and (4) oxygen atoms.

Sulfuric Acid is H2SO4.

It contains the elements: Hydrogen, Sulfur, and Oxygen.

Thus there are 3 elements in a molecule of sulfuric acid.

How many element are in a molecule of sulfuric acid (H2SO4)?

Sulfuric Acid is H2SO4. It contains the elements: Hydrogen, Sulfur, and Oxygen. Thus there are 3 elements in a molecule of sulfuric acid.

How many oxygen atoms are in a molecule of sulfuric?

Assuming you are talking about sulfuric acid, there are four oxygen atoms.


How many atoms are in molecule of sulfuric acid?

Sulfuric acid, H2SO4, has 7 atoms in each molecule: 2 H (hydrogen), 1 S (sulfur), and 4 O (oxygen).


How many elements are present in sulfuric acid?

2 hydogen 1 oxygen


How many sulfur atoms are in a molecule of sulfuric acid (H2SO4)?

We know from looking at the molecular formula that one mole of molecules of H2SO4 contains 2 moles of atoms of hydrogen, 1 mole of atoms of sulfur and 4 moles of atoms of oxygen.


How many hydrogen are in a particle of sulfuric?

If we are talking about a single molecule of sulfuric acid, H2SO4 then there are two hydrogens... ... However if we are talking about a single sulfuric ion (which is unlikely) then the forumla would be SO42- then there would be no hydrogens


How many elements does h2so4 have?

H2SO4 is Sulfuric Acid. If it has the number 2 in front of the whole compound it means there are two molecules in the reaction. The number of atoms in 1 molecule is (2 x hydrogen, 1 x sulfur, 4 x oxygen), therefore in two molecules there are 4, 2 and 8 respectively which gives a total of 14 atoms.


How many moles of sulfuric acid are needed to contain 0.750 mol of oxygen atoms?

The molecular formula for sulfuric acid is H2SO4. This shows that each molecule contains exactly 4 oxygen atoms. Therefore, 0.750/4 or 0.1875 moles of sulfuric acid contain 0.750 moles of oxygen atoms.


When sulfuric acid is added to water how many ions does each molecule form?

In dilute sulfuric acid there are only ions: Almost two H+, almost one SO42- and a very small amount (<1%) HSO4- ions.


How many atoms does a molecule of sulfuric acid have?

There are 7 atoms - 2 are hydrogen, 4 are oxygen, and 1 is sulphur (or 'sulfur' in American).


If you start with 20 grams of hydrochloric acid how many grams of sulfuric acid will be produced?

Non!!!! They are two different substances/acids. The formulas for sulphuric acid is H2SO4 and for hydrochloric acid (HCl). With the exception of the hydrogens all the other elements present in the two difference acids are different.
