Water isn't an atom, its a molecule. One molecule of water is two hydrogen atoms (1 proton each) and one oxygen atom (8 protons each). Thus the total protons is 1+1+8 = 10 protons in one molecule of water.

∙ 13y agoH20 is the chemical formula better known as water. To find the number of protons in water, we first need to know the number of protons for each of its constituent atoms. The results are that hydrogen has 1 proton per atom and oxygen has 8. So, after doing some simple arithmetic, we find that water has 1*2 + 8*1 = 10 protons per molecule.

How many quarks are in a normal water molecule?
One normal water molecule has 2 protons plus the quantity of 8 protons and 8 neutrons. That it is a total of 18 nucleons. As all nucleons have 3 valence quarks, then there are 54 quarks in 1 normal water molecule.
Does water have nuclear energy?
Yes, but more specifically, the atoms that make up the water molecule have nuclear energy. Nuclear energy is what hold the atoms together. It holds the nuetrons and protons together within the nucleus of the atom. So anything that has nuetrons and protons has nuclear energy.
The hydrogen side of a water molecule is?
The hydrogen side of a water molecule has a slight positive charge.
What is the size of a steam molecule?
It's exactly the same size as a water molecule or an ice molecule.
What is the name for one particle of water?
Hydrogen and Oxygen!H2O - Hydrogen x2 & Oxygen It's basically a water molecule.
How man protons are in a water molecule?
A water molecule (H2O) has 10 protons.
How many molecule are in a water molecule?
Hydrogen: 1 Proton, 0 Neutrons Oxygen: 8 Protons, 8 Neutrons Water: 9 Protons, 8 Neutrons. Yy
Does a water molecule have more protons than electrons?
Oxygen.
How many protons neutrons and electrons are there in a molecule of water?
The number of neutrons will vary depending on the isotopes of hydrogen and oxygen in the molecule. The number of protons and electrons will be 10 each in every molecule.
How many quarks are in a normal water molecule?
One normal water molecule has 2 protons plus the quantity of 8 protons and 8 neutrons. That it is a total of 18 nucleons. As all nucleons have 3 valence quarks, then there are 54 quarks in 1 normal water molecule.
How many protons nutrons electrons does water molecule?
10 protons, 8 (or more, up to 14) neutrons
Does water make a difference to the charge of a molecule?
No, the electrons and protons in the atoms make a difference.
How many protons are in an oxygen molecule?
There are 8 protons in an oxygen atom. There are two oxygen atoms in an oxygen molecule. Therefore, there are 16 protons in an oxygen molecule
How many protons neutrons and electrons are in H2O?
A water molecule has two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. The proton, neutron and electron count of them are 1,0,1 and 8,8,8 respectively. Therefore a molecule of water has 10 protons, 8 neutrons and 10 electrons.
What is the total number of protons in the molecule of water?
1 for each hydrogen and 8 in the oxygen nucleus = 10
How many molecules does h2o have?
Each hydrogen atom has 1 protons and the lone oxygen atom has 8 protons (because it is atomic number 8) making for a grand total of 10 protons in each H2O molecule.
How many protons and electrons does vinegar's atoms have?
Vinegar is a water solution of acetic acid - CH3COOH. This is a molecule not an atom.
