Hydrogen and Oxygen by themselves have 1 and 6 valence electrons, respectively. 8 valence electrons is stable, so the atoms form bonds with each other to achieve 8 valence e-.

1 H atom + 1 H atom + 1 O atom = 8 valence e-

The oxygen atom requires 2 electrons to complete its valance shell. Hydrogen is special in that it can eighter give or take one electron and still be stable. So hydrogen gives its electron  to oxygen, and two hydrogens fill up all of oxygen's  valance shell, and it forms water.

What is the final concentration of a solution prepared by diluting 35.0 ml of 12.0 m hcl to a final volume of 1.20 l? what is th
Dafna1 [17]
We know that, M1V1     =     M2V2
                        (Initial)          (Final)
where, M1 and M2 are initial and final concentration of soution respectively. 
V1 and V2 = initial and final volume of solution respectively

Given: M1 = 12 m, V1 = 35 ml and V2 = 1.2 l = 1200 ml

∴ M2 = M1V1/V2 = (12 × 35)/ 1200 = 0.35 m
Final concentration of solution is 0.35 m
