Oxygen atoms in water molecules are the same as oxygen atoms in any other molecules; the definition of an oxygen atom is that it is an atom which has eight protons in its nucleus. Normally it has eight neutrons and eight electrons as well, but that can vary. It is only the eight protons which define it as oxygen.
What else can I help you with?
What is a water molecule made of?
One atom of water and two atoms of hydrogen. One oxygen atom and two hyrdogen atoms.
How does the formula for water tell you that there is only one oxygen atom in a water molecule?
Water is H2O, so it contains two hydrogen atoms (H2) and one oxygen atom (O).
Two hydrogen atoms combine chemically with one oxygen atom to form water. What is water?
A molecule
What is a molecule of water made up of?
2 atoms of hydrogen & 1 atom of oxygen, hence the formula H2O
How many central atom of H2O?
The water molecule is one oxygen atom connected to two separate hydrogen atoms. The three are not in a perfect straight line, though there is symmetry through the central oxygen atom.
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.
Is water a atom or a molecule?
Is not a molecule or a atom it is a compound
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 many of each type of atom is in a single molecule of water?
A single molecule of water consists of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.
What atoms and how many of each are found in a molecule of water?
In one Molecule of water there are two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom
Does oxygen form a molecule?
The best known molecule that Oxygen forms is Water. Water is composed of 2 Hydrogen Atom that have combined with 1 Oxygen atom to provide a useful substance
How many molecules of oxygen is need to make water?
None. A water molecules contains one oxygen atom and two hydrogen atoms. Oxygen only contains oxygen.
A water molecule is made up of two types of atoms of?
A molecule of water has 1 atom of oxygen and 2 atoms of hydrogen, hence the formula H2O.
How many each kind of atom is in one molecule of water?
2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom
How many pairs of valence electrons are there on the oxygen atom in the water molecule?
There are 4 valence electrons on the oxygen atom in the water molecule. Oxygen has 6 valence electrons, and in a water molecule, oxygen forms 2 covalent bonds with the hydrogen atoms, sharing 2 of its valence electrons with each hydrogen atom.
How many electrons does a water molecule have?
A molecule of of H2O has 10 electrons: two from the hydrogen and 8 from the oxygen.
How many atoms of oxygen does one molecule of water have?
One molecule of water contains 2 atoms of Hydrogen - and 1 atom of Oxygen.
