Can H2O gain a hydrogen?

Yes, H2O is amphoteric so it can gain H+ and become hydronium. Hydronium is represented as H3O+.


When does water act as a base and an acid?

molecules in water that release hydrogen ions (H+) are acids, while molecules in water that release hydroxide (OH-) are bases. In water solutions, acids affect water molecules, producing hydronium (H3O+) and bases also affect water molecules, producing hydroxide (OH-) ions.


What is the nuclear decay equation for hydrogen-hydrogen?

The only hydrogen isotope that undergoes any type of radioactive decay is tritium (hydrogen-3), it undergoes beta decay to become helium-3. If that's not what you were asking about, I'm confused by your question.


What will happen to metals when exposed to acid experiment?

If they are not "more noble" than H3O^(+), they will lose electrons to it and become ions, hydrogen escapes. example: iron and the hydronium-ion Fe + 2 H3O^(+) ---> Fe^(2+) + 2 H2O + H2


What is the word equation for the reaction that takes place when hydrogen burns in the air?

When hydrogen burns in air, it combines with atmospheric oxygen to form water. Since hydrogen and oxygen are undergoing a chemical change to become chemically bonded together producing H2O the change is chemical in nature.

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.
