How many hydrogen atoms are on the left side of the photosynthesis equation?

There are six hydrogen atoms on the left side of the photosynthesis equation, which is represented by the water molecule (H2O). Each water molecule consists of two hydrogen atoms.


How many molecules of hydrogen in water?

There are two atoms of hydrogen in a water molecule, but no hydrogen molecules.


Why water molecule is spherical?

The water molecule (H2O) is not exactly spherical; it has a bent molecular geometry due to the arrangement of its atoms. The oxygen atom in the water molecule attracts electrons more strongly than the hydrogen atoms, causing a slight negative charge on the oxygen side and a slight positive charge on the hydrogen side, giving it a polar shape.


How many hydrogen atoms in water?

There are two hydrogen atoms in one molecule of water (H2O).


A larger oxygen atom shares electrons with smaller hydrogen atoms what kind of molecule does this form?

This forms a molecule of water (H2O). Water is a polar molecule due to the unequal sharing of electrons between oxygen and hydrogen atoms, resulting in a slightly negative side near the oxygen atom and a slightly positive side near the hydrogen atoms.

Why is water consider to be the polar molecule?

it just is. jk hydrogen is on one side and oxyen is one the other


How many atoms are there of hydrogen in water?

H2OCount two atoms hydrogen in one molecule of water.


Why is water considered a polar molecule?

Water is considered a polar molecule because it has a slightly positive charge on one side and a slightly negative charge on the other side, due to the uneven distribution of electrons between the oxygen and hydrogen atoms in the molecule.


Is carbon a water molecule?

No, water molecules are made of Hydrogen and Oxygen, there is no Carbon.


How many molecules of hydrogen does water contain?

A molecule of water contains two atoms of hydrogen. A molecule of hydrogen contains two hydrogen atoms. Therefore, one molecule of water contains one hydrogen molecule, but it is unusual to think in these terms. Check the wording of your question.


Why there is strong attraction between the water molecules though a water molecule itself is electrically neutral?

Water is a polar molecule, it has a bent shape with the Hydrogen (positive side) molecules on the opposite side of the Oxygen (the negative side) the type of molecular attraction (Inter molecular forces) present in water, (giving it it's cohesion) is called Hydrogen Bonding. The positive hydrogen (and it is more positive because it's so much smaller then the oxygen, leading to uneven sharing of electrons, meaning the oxygen will pull the electrons more, making it more negative) wants to be near the negative oxygen of another water molecule.
