The word "valance" is used to describe electrons in the outer-most energy level of an atom. Oxygen has six valance electrons.
0. All electrons will pair if there is an even number
8
8
In the first shell there are two electrons and in the second shell there are six electrons, but only the electrons in the second (outer) shell are valence electrons.
Oxygen has six valence electrons.
There is no third energy level of oxygen, there is only two. The second energy level has 6 electrons.

The word "valance" is used to describe electrons in the outer-most energy level of an atom. Oxygen has six valance electrons.
each atom wants a full 8 of valance electrons it goes 2-8-8 oxygen as a neutral atom has has 8 electrons so oxygen has it like this 2-6 because that's all the electrons that's all the electrons it has.
Oxygen has 8 electrons (assuming its charge is 0), and in the first shell ("closest" to the nucleus) there are 2 electrons. :)
Two electrons can be housed in the first energy level.
The electron configuration of an oxygen atom is (2, 6). Meaning it has 2 electrons in its first shell and 6 in its second.The energy levels of atoms are limited to how many electrons they can hold.The first energy level can only hold a maximum of 2 electrons the second has a maximum of 8 and the third has a maximum of 18 etc.Hope this Helps!
