What does this indicate about the density of electrons around the oxygen atom as compared to the density of electrons around the hydrogen atoms? The shading around the molecule represents the relative density of electrons shared by the atoms. What does this indicate about the density of electrons around the oxygen atom as compared to the density of electrons around the hydrogen atoms? The oxygen atom has more electrons, therefore all the electrons want to be bunched up around the top of the oxygen atom. Electrons are less dense around the oxygen atom. Electrons from the hydrogen atoms are exhibiting a stronger magnetic force when near the oxygen atom. Electrons are more dense around the oxygen atom than around the hydrogen atoms.arrow_forward
