The 2 in the compound H2O means that there are only 2 hydrogen atoms.
simple as that
It just means 2.
it means
Hydrogen, 2 oxygen.
So it's basically just 2.
H2o is actually just the scientific name for water, and it means 1 hydrogen atom, and 2 oxygen atoms.
Hope that answers all your questions.
Thanks! :)
Incorrect, I'm afraid. it means 2 hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. It is a convention in chemistry to use capital letters.
Its mean 2 parts of Hydrogen & One part of Oxygen.

Which is a conjugate acid base pair in the following equation HS- plus H2O equals S-2 plus H30?
This is a Bronsted question. Hs- is the acid in this which makes H2O a base. Therefore S-2 is the conjugate base and the H3O+ hydronium ion is the conjugate acid.
