Answer:
The correct answer is explained below:
Explanation:
The chemical formula of water is - H2O where two atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen are there.
A. Neutrons - hydrogen has no neutron (assume all H are protonium) and oxygen have 8 neutrons
B. Atoms - Hydrogen - 2 oxygen - 1
C. Protons - hydrogen has 1 proton each and a total of 2 as two atoms are present, oxygen has 8 protons
D. electrons- hydrogen 1 and oxygen has 8 electrons.
Therefore, the water molecule has:
Oxygen+ hydrogen = total
8 + 1 + 1 = 10 protons
8 + 0 + 0 = 8 neutrons
8 + 1 + 1 = 10 electrons.
