itcarries 8 electrons and 8 protonsand its valency is 2.
When two oxygen atoms come together, they form a covalent bond by sharing electrons. Each oxygen atom has 6 electrons in its outer shell, and by sharing two pairs of electrons, they can achieve a stable configuration with a full outer shell of 8 electrons.
The sharing of electrons in the outer energy levels of two atoms is called bonding.
Sharing of electrons in the outer energy level of two atoms results in a covalent bond.
Oxygen needs 2 more valence electrons to have a full outer shell. Oxygen has 6 valence electrons, and a full outer shell for oxygen is achieved at 8 valence electrons.
In a covalently bonded molecule, atoms are bonded by the sharing of their electrons. When Oxygen combines with two Hydrogen, H2O is formed by two covalent bonds. Oxygen, which has 6 outer electrons, needs to gain two electrons to form a completely stable octet of electrons. Each of the Hydrogen atoms requires a single electron to complete its outer level of electrons. The resulting molecule is a angularly bonded molecule of water with two double covalent bonds: O <- oxygen shares 1 electron with each hydrogen atom // \\ <-double covalent bond H H They overlap

Covalent bonds. The hydrogen and oxygen bond together by sharing outer shell electrons.

A covalent bond is formed when sharing electrons.
Sharing of electrons in the outer energy level of two atoms results in a covalent bond.
I believe they would be sharing electrons in the outer orbit.
Calcium has 2 outer ring electrons, while oxygen has 6 outer ring electrons.
Oxygen needs 2 more valence electrons to have a full outer shell. Oxygen has 6 valence electrons, and a full outer shell for oxygen is achieved at 8 valence electrons.
O2 shares two electron pairs, giving both oxygen atoms 8 electrons on the outer shell (noble gas configuration).
