How many bonding pairs of electrons are there in water?
There are four electrons, which is two pair.
What is the name given to the pairs of valence electrons that do not participate in bonding ina diatomic oxygen molecules?
These pairs of electrons are referred to as lone pairs.
How many lone pair electrons are in CO2?
There are 2 lone pairs in each Oxygen atom. So there are 4 lone pairs in total, which means 8 lone pair electrons.
How many lone pairs of electrons are there in a molecule of SO2?
Yahoo it Google it
Why do water molecules have bent shape and carbon dioxide molecules have a linear shape?
In a water molecule, there are two lone pairs of electrons connected to the oxygen. The lone pairs push the hydrogen atoms, creating a bent shape. In CO2, however, there are two double bonds and no lone electrons on the central atom, hence the molecule has a linear shape.

How many paire of electrons do the two oxygen atoms in an oxygen molecule share with each other?
They share two pairs of electrons and have 2 lone pairs

How many electrons are in the outermost energy level of an oxygen atom as it share electrons whit hydrogen atoms as part of a water molecule?
There are a total of eight. Two pairs are bond pairs and two are lone pairs.

What dot diagrams represent?
Lewis dot diagrams represent the bonds between the atoms of a molecule, as well as any lone pair of electrons. For instance, in the O2 molecule, there is a double bond between the two oxygen atoms, but there are also two lone pairs of electrons per oxygen atom.

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.
