Without hybridization, oxygen has a valence electron configuration of 2s22p4. Which means it has 2 unpaired electrons; therefore it can form 2 bonds.

What holds atoms together in molecules?
Chemical bonds. For example, with ionic bonds it is the attraction of opposite charges. With covalent bonds it is the sharing of electrons.
What are the five agents of chemical weathering?
Chemical reactions break down the bonds holding the rocks together, causing them to fall apart, forming smaller and smaller pieces. Chemical weathering is much more common in locations where there is a lot of water. This is because water is important to many of the chemical reactions that can take place. Warmer temperatures are also more friendly to chemical weathering. The most common types of chemical weathering are oxidation, hydrolysis and carbonation.
What can plants make?
Plants can make us live as they give out oxygen.
How did Lavoisier affect the world?
He came up with the conservation of mass, discovered oxygen and its role in combustion, and came up with the basis of the modern chemical nomenclature. He did many other things, which can be googled.
What type of change that produces a new substance?
If you mean changing one element into another, like uranium 238 into plutonium 239, which happens in nuclear reactors, the word is 'transmutation'. Otherwise many chemical reactions form new substances, without the elements involved changing, and these would be called 'chemical reactions'.
How many bonds does carbon make with oxygen in carbon dioxide?
Carbon makes four bonds with oxygen in carbon dioxide.
How many bonds can Ca make?
Calcium can make two bonds because it is in the same group as oxygen.
How many bonds are formed when hydrogen and oxygen combine to make water?
Two bonds in total. The oxygen atom forms two covalent bonds, one to each of two hydrogen atoms. This can be represented as H - O - H.
How many covalent bonds does water have?
it has two bonds because the oxygen can make a bond with each hydrogen
How many covanlent bonds is oxygen likely to make with hydrogen?
2 covalent bonds: H-O-H. In other words, it makes water.
How many covalent bonds does oxygen have?
2
What are chemical bonds composed of?
A chemical bond is composed of many atoms.
How many chemical bonds does titanium have?
it has two
How many bonds can oxygen typically forms?
2
How many types of chemical bonding and which?
Chemical bonds are: ionic, covalent, intermetallic.
How many bonds and non bonds are in the molecule SiOH2?
Si will have two bonds to the two Hydrogens, and a double bond to the Oxygen. The Oxygen will have two pairs of unpaired valence electrons.
In neutral molecules how many bonds are commonly formed by nitrogen and separately how many by oxygen?
3 bonds are commonly formed by nitrogen and 2 are commonly formed by oxygen.
