Answer: H2O ( 1 oxygen & 2 oxyegen atoms)
H2O is the molecular formula of water, also called Dihydrogen monoxide. H2O symbolises two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.
How h2o is formed?
For example, when hydrogen gas, H2(g), is burned in the presence of gaseous oxygen, O2(g), a new substance, liquid water, H2O(l ), forms. The covalent bonds within the H2 molecules and O2 molecules break, and new covalent bonds form between oxygen atoms and hydrogen atoms (Figure 7.1). ese covalent bonds break.
H. 2. O is the chemical formula for water, meaning that each of its molecules contains one oxygen and two hydrogen atoms. H.The chemical formula of water is H2O. It is also called dihydrogen monoxide. The 2 is the subscript for H symbolises the presence of 2 Hydrogen atoms.A physical change is any change in a
substance’s form that does not change
its chemical makeup. Examples of
physical changes are breaking a stick or
melting ice.
A chemical change, or chemical reaction,
occurs when atoms of a substance are
rearranged, and the bonds between the
atoms are broken or formed. During a
chemical reaction, the structure or
composition of the materials change.
When a chemical change is complete, the
resulting substance(s) is/are different from
the original substance(s). As a result of a
chemical reaction, new substances with
new properties are formed.
