2. 

The reason why is because there are 2 available electron spots on the orbital for the oxygen atom. Hydrogen atoms have one proton and one electron, thus, in order to fill the oxygen atom orbital to a full outer shell, a maximum of 2 atoms could bond with the oxygen atoms. 

6 electrons (oxygen)+ 1 electron (hydrogen)+ 1 electron (hydrogen)= 8

<u>Answer:</u> The number of hydrogen atoms that can combine to oxygen are 2.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Oxygen is the 8th element of the periodic table with electronic configuration: 1s^22s^22p^4

This element requires 2 electrons to attain stable electronic configuration.

Hydrogen is the 1st element of the periodic table with electronic configuration: 1s^1

This element will loose 1 electron to attain stable electronic configuration.

2 Hydrogen atoms will share their 1 electron each with 1 oxygen atom. So, that both the element attain stable electronic configuration.

They will form a covalent compound with chemical formula H_2O

Hence, the number of hydrogen atoms that can combine to oxygen are 2.

Explain why you usually can't use just a single spectrum line to confirm the identity of an element
Agata [3.3K]
You can't usually just use a  single spectrum line to confirm the identity of an element because there are cases that the emission line id not clearly defined.  When the emission line is very weak compared to surrounding noise, in which case the more datapoints you have to build up confidence for the existence of a particular emission spectra, the better.

Why can water pass through sandstrone but not through shale
Valentin [98]
It really depends on the 'type' of rock it is. By this I mean whether it's impermeable or permeable. Impermeable rocks don't allow water through and permeable rocks do. It has to do with how 'porous' a rock is: how many openings it has and how spaced apart are its particles are. Sandstone is permeable and Shale impermeable.
