What is the difference between:

(i) an atom of hydrogen and a molecule of hydrogen ?

(ii) a molecule of oxygen and a molecule of water ?

Solution

(i) An atom of hydrogen is the smallest particle of hydrogen element which does not have independent existence. A molecule of hydrogen has two hydrogen atoms bonded together and is the smallest particle of hydrogen element which has independent existence.

(ii) A molecule of oxygen has two atoms of oxygen only. It is the smallest particle of oxygen element which can exist independently. A molecule of water is a compound obtained from two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.
