No, a H2O molecule, contains 2 hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom - not the other way around as in the question.

What can water molecules form hydrogen bonds with?

Water is composed of Two Hydrogen atoms that form a polar covalent bond with an oxygen atom.


What things does water have in it?

Water is a molecule containing one oxygen and and two hydrogen atoms covalently bonded to each other (oxygen to hydrogen). As a whole, observable water is simply many of these molecules 'stuck together' by hydrogen bonds that form between the oxygen atom of one molecule and the hydrogen atom of another.


Are molecules made up of hydrogen?

Molecules can be composed of hydrogen atoms along with other elements such as oxygen, carbon, nitrogen, and more. Water (H2O) is an example of a molecule made up of hydrogen along with oxygen.


What is a molecule containing only carbon and hydrogen called?

A hydrocarbon.


What are the bonds that hold hydrogen and oxygen called?

In water and many other compounds hydrogen and oxygen are held by covalent bonds.Between water molecules and between other polar molecules hydrogen of one molecule and oxygen of a different molecule are held by hydrogen bonds.


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.


If a water molecule is neutral why does it attract polar molecules?

Water molecules have a partial positive charge on the hydrogen atoms and a partial negative charge on the oxygen atom, causing it to be a polar molecule. This polarity allows water to form hydrogen bonds with other polar molecules, such as those containing oxygen or nitrogen, leading to attraction between water and other polar molecules.


Why does oxygen molecule go slower than hydrogen molecule?

Because the hydrogen molecules are further apart than the oxygen so move quicker.


What is carbonhydrate made of?

Molecules containing carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms


What are the bonds that connect the hydrogen molecules to the oxygen molecules?

The bonds that connect hydrogen molecules to oxygen molecules in water are covalent bonds. In a water molecule, each hydrogen atom forms a covalent bond with the oxygen atom by sharing electrons.


Organic molecules are made up of what?

The definition of an organic molecule is 'carbon containing.' The hydrogen is not necessary, but is often present.


What happens to water when it is heated?

Firstly, there are two hydrogen molecules and one oxygen molecule that make up water. These hydrogen molecules are bound by hydrogen bonds to the oxygen molecule. Hence the meaning of H20. 2 hydrogens and 1 oxygen. The hydrogen molecules that are bound to the oxygen molecule are broken at high temperatures therefore water (in liquid condition) is turned into water vapor (gas condition).
