how does h2 and o2 become h2o ?

I don't understand what to even google to learn how to add molecules ?

I want to cry



Yes. The electron lost in the process is released as energy. It literally generates electricity (the movement of electrons) when they combine. This is exactly how a hydrogen fuel cell produces electricity.

H2 and O2 are combined, O loses an electron, which becomes energy, and the end product is H2O (water).

I thought the energy came from the change in bond lengths? H2O has a neutral charge, as well as H2 and O2, so there wouldn't be a lost electron.
