In an Oxygen Atom there are two rings on which the Electrons orbit around the Nucleus, there is the inner ring and the outer ring. The inner ring closest to the Nucleus contains two Electrons and on the outer ring there are six Electrons making a total of eight Electrons, which is equal to the amount of Neutrons and Protons in the Nucleus (8 Neutrons, 8 Protons).
This should answer the Question.
Oxygen is a chemical metal element. There are 8 electrons in a single atom.
Electrons are arranged in shells around the atom.
electrons are shared in two shells, 2 in the first and 6 in the second
Oxygen is a non metal element. There are 8 electrons in a single atom.
electrons are arranged in energy levels, or shells, around the nucleus of an atom.
Electrons are arranged in shells, subshells and orbitals.
There are 8 electrons in a single neutral oxygen atom.The atomic number of oxygen is 8, because it has 8 protons in its nucleus. In an elemental, neutral, atom of oxygen the number of electrons will match the number of protons. There are 8 electrons in a neutral oxygen atom.Note that oxygen can become an ion under certain circumstances, and we need to specify the neutral atom to state how many electrons there are in oxygen.
Oxygen has 8 protons and 8 electrons in its atom.
There are 16 electrons in an oxygen molecule as each oxygen atom has 8 electrons.
An atom of oxygen has 8 electrons, in the configuration 2,6.
Every oxygen atom has eight electrons.
A neutral atom of oxygen would have 6 valence electrons.
