There's a picture in the linked page showing a single water molecule, consisting of one oxygen atom (in red) and two hydrogen atoms (in white), hence, the formula for a single molecule of water, H2O.

What three materials are composed of molecules that have covalent bonds?

Water, methane, and ammonia are composed of molecules with covalent bonds. These molecules have atoms sharing electrons to form strong bonds within the molecule.


What is the steam being given off when the water boils is it water molecules or hydrogen molecules?

The steam produced when water boils is primarily composed of water molecules in the form of water vapor. This water vapor is the gaseous phase of water and is made up of individual water molecules that have escaped the liquid phase due to the heat energy applied during boiling. There are no hydrogen molecules present in the steam produced from boiling water.


How many molecules are in the formula 3H2O?

There are 6 molecules in the formula 3H2O: 3 molecules of water (H2O) each composed of 3 atoms (2 hydrogen and 1 oxygen).


Does ice contain elements?

Ice itself is not composed of elements as it is a compound made up of water molecules in a solid state. However, the water molecules in ice are composed of hydrogen and oxygen atoms, which are elements.


When salt is dissolves in water it actually breaks down into two different substances is salt composed of atoms or molecules?

Salt is composed of molecules, which are made up of two different types of atoms - sodium and chloride. When salt dissolves in water, the sodium atoms and chloride atoms separate from each other, forming individual ions. This is what allows salt to dissolve in water and break down into separate substances.
