Question
Find the total positive charge of all the protons in $1.0 \mathrm{mol}$ of water.
Step 1
A water molecule (H2O) consists of 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom. Each hydrogen atom has 1 proton and the oxygen atom has 8 protons. Therefore, a single water molecule has a total of 10 protons. Show more…
