Answer:

10 H atoms combine with 5 oxygen to form 5 water molecules.

Step-by-step explanation:

those substances which having low boiling point or low melting point such as water they form covalent bond.

Covalent bonds form between non-metal atoms. Each bond consists of a shared pair of electrons, and is very strong. Simple molecular substances and giant covalent structures have different properties.
