How do hydrogen and oxygen atoms form covalent bonds to create water? a: oxygen gives its electrons to hydrogen. b: hydrogen gives its electrons to oxygen. c: oxygen and hydrogen share electrons with each other.

C) Oxygen and hydrogen share electrons with each other.

The correct answer is Option C.

Explanation:

Covalent bond is formed when there is sharing of electrons between the atoms that are forming a bond.

When hydrogen and oxygen form a covalent bond to form a compound named water, both the atoms share electrons with each other.

Electronic configuration of Hydrogen =

Electronic configuration of Oxygen =

As, 2 electrons are required for one oxygen atom to complete its octet and 1 electron is required by the hydrogen to have a stable configuration. Therefore, 2 atoms of hydrogen shares its electrons to 1 atom of oxygen to form water.

The chemical formula for water is .

Hence, the correct answer is option C.

that tool is called an altimeter which measures your altitude which can be used to tell which atmosphere you are currently in, including the stratosphere.

hope this ! : )

i think the answer is a, hope this : )
