None; the oxygen has 2 missing "spaces" for electrons. The two hydrogens have 1 missing "space" for an electron each. Through sharing, all of the atoms fulfill the octet rule. (8 e- in outermost orbital)

∙ 7y agoIn one molecule of water there are 4 (2 pairs) of non-bonding electrons. All of these electrons reside on the oxygen atom of the water molecule.
Wiki User
∙ 7y agoThe electron dot structure for H2O shows that the O has 2 lone pairs of electrons. So the answer would be 4 non bonding electrons are in a water molecule.

How many nonbonding electrons are there in crotononitrile?
The molecular formula for crotononitrile is C4H5N, so the total number of electrons in the molecule is (6 X 4) + (1 X 5) + 7 = 24 + 5 + 7 = 36. The total number of bonded electrons in crotononitrile is 24, leaving 12 electrons nonbonded.
