Four atoms of hydrogen combine with one carbon atom to form ch4, but only two hydrogen atoms combine with one oxygen atom to form h2o. why?

Hydrogen has one valence electron, Atoms may share electrons in order to fill their electron shells, Oxygen has two vacancies in its electron shell, but carbon has four vacancies.

Explanation:

i jus did it on study island :P

the ideal gas law equation is as follows

pv = nrt

where p - pressure

v - volume

n - number of moles

r - universal gas constant

t - temperature

so if the pressure, volume and temperature are already known

we are left with n and r

since r is the universal gas constant that has a known fixed value then r too is known

so we are left with 'n'

once we know temperature volume and pressure

we can find the number of moles of gas present using the ideal gas law equation

this is not my own answer, this is an answer for the same question by the user blahblahmali. i do not claim ownership of this account.

a electronegativity decreases beacuse the size of nucleus is bigger.
