    Oxygen Atoms in Water: Calculating the Number in 6 Molecules
    Here's how to figure that out:

    * Water's Formula: The chemical formula for water is H₂O, meaning each molecule has 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom.

    * Atoms per Molecule: So, one molecule of water contains 1 oxygen atom.

    * Total Oxygen Atoms: Since you have 6 molecules of water, you have 6 * 1 = 6 oxygen atoms.
