Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Water molecules are composed of
A
two oxygen and two hydrogen atoms
B
one oxygen and two hydrogen atoms
C
two oxygen and one hydrogen atom
D
one oxygen and one hydgrogen atom
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A water molecule has three atoms: two hydrogen (H) atoms and one oxygen (O) atom. That’s why water is sometimes referred to as H2O. A single drop of water contains billions of water molecules.

Detailed explanation-2: -If we want to make 2 water molecules, we will need 4 hydrogen atoms and 2 oxygen atoms.

Detailed explanation-3: -Two hydrogen atoms and two oxygen atoms together make hydrogen peroxide, which is less stable than water.

Detailed explanation-4: -One water molecule consists of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. It has the chemical form of H2O. Q.

Detailed explanation-5: -Covalent bonding of a water molecule For stabilization, they share their valence electrons with other atoms. A water molecule is an example of a molecule created through covalent bonding. Water is made up of one oxygen atom and 2 hydrogen atoms, hence the chemical symbol H2O.
