Oxygen has six valence electrons.
What else can I help you with?
How many pairs of valence electrons are there on the oxygen atom in the water molecule?
There are 4 valence electrons on the oxygen atom in the water molecule. Oxygen has 6 valence electrons, and in a water molecule, oxygen forms 2 covalent bonds with the hydrogen atoms, sharing 2 of its valence electrons with each hydrogen atom.
How many valence electrons does a neutral oxygen atom have?
A neutral atom of oxygen would have 6 valence electrons.
What electrons are in oxygen valence?
An oxygen atom has two valence electrons.
The double bond between a carbon atom and two oxygen atoms (a molecule of carbon dioxide) has two characteristics. what are they?
Valence electrons are shared between oxygen atoms, Four valence electrons are shared.
How many valence electrons does serine have?
Serine has five valence electrons. It has three valence electrons from the oxygen atom and one valence electron each from the carbon and nitrogen atoms in its structure.
How many valence electrons does CH3CO-OH have?
CH3CO-OH (acetic acid) has 10 valence electrons. The carbon atom contributes 4 valence electrons, each hydrogen atom contributes 1 valence electron, and the oxygen atom contributes 6 valence electrons.
What The double bond between carbon atom and two oxygen atoms has two characteristics what are they?
The answer is c. Valence electrons are shared between oxygen atoms & D. Four valence eletrons are shared
How many total electrons did the oxygen atom have before it bonded covalently withthe hydrogen atoms to form a water molecule?
An unbonded oxygen atom has eight electrons, with six of the electrons located in the valence shell. Two of the valence electrons are unpaired, and therefore can undergo covalent bonding with other oxygen atoms or nonmetals (such as hydrogen).
What is the valance electrons for H3O?
The H3O+ ion has three hydrogen atoms bonded to an oxygen atom. Each hydrogen atom contributes 1 valence electron, while the oxygen atom contributes 6 valence electrons. Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in the H3O+ ion is 3 (hydrogen) + 6 (oxygen) = 9 electrons.
How do you draw 2CO2?
To draw the Lewis structure of 2CO2, you first need to determine the total number of valence electrons. Each oxygen atom contributes 6 valence electrons, and each carbon atom contributes 4 valence electrons, for a total of 16 + 4 = 20 valence electrons. Place the carbon atom in the center, surrounded by two oxygen atoms. Each oxygen atom forms a double bond with the carbon atom, using 4 electrons each. This leaves 4 electrons to be placed as lone pairs on each oxygen atom to satisfy the octet rule.
What is the total number of valence electrons in oxygen?
The answer is not 6 as said here before! The number of valence electrons in O2 (oxygen molecule) is: 12 valence electrons. 6 of them from each oxygen (O) atom. 4 valence electrons make up the double bond between the two oxygen atoms, and the remaining 8 valence electrons form lone pairs (non-bonding pairs) on the oxygen atoms, 2 lone pairs on each. I hope there is some help in this.
How many valence electrons does H2O2have?
H2O2 is a compound, and the concept of "valence electrons" applies to atoms but not to compounds. If the question is or should be intended to be, "How many valence electrons did the atoms in one formula unit of H2O2 have before they reacted to form the compound?", the answer is one from each hydrogen atoms and six from each oxygen atom, for a total of 14.
