Answer:
1 molecule of methane has 5 atoms.
Explanation:
From the structural formula of methane (CH₄), we can understand that this compound molecule has 5 atoms in total - 1 carbon atom bounded by 4 hydrogen atoms.
Methane is one of the simplest organic compounds while being the simplest alkane for sure.
Owing to the quadro-valency of the carbon atom, it involves 4 other atoms/molecules being bounded to it.
Thus, 1 molecule of the simple alkane methane has 4 hydrogen atoms bounded to 1 carbon atom.
