Oxygen has 6 valence electrons. A person can determine the number of valence electrons by looking at the Periodic Table. since oxygen is in the 6th column form the left, it has 6 valence electrons.
Oxygen has 6 valence electrons.
Oxygen atoms have six valence electrons.
Atoms of nonmetals can have up to 8 valence electrons. They tend to gain, share, or receive electrons to achieve a full outer electron shell. This allows them to reach a stable electron configuration, similar to a noble gas.
An atom of any halogen has 7 valence electrons. Halogens belong to group 17 of the periodic table, which means they have 7 electrons in their outermost shell.
In water molecules there are 2 atoms of hydrogen of and 1 atom of oxygen present. each hydrogen atom shares 1 electron with the oxygen atom. So the total number of electrons shared with oxygen are 2,total no. of electrons shared by hydrogen is 2 and the total no. of electrons shared by each hydrogen atom is 1.
The number of electrons corresponds to the "index" number of the element in the periodic table. The 8th element is Oxygen, which has 8 atoms when neutral. That didnt answer the question. ANSWER Neon has 8 electrons :)
The electrons come from water. In the light dependent stage water is split into hydrogen ions (H+), electrons and oxygen. The electrons are passed on to chlorophyll, the H+ ions combine with NADP to form NADPH and the oxygen is released.
The oxygen family, also known as Group 16 on the periodic table, has 6 valence electrons. This includes elements like oxygen, sulfur, selenium, and tellurium. Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost energy level of an atom and are involved in bonding.
6 valence electrons
6
The word "valance" is used to describe electrons in the outer-most energy level of an atom. Oxygen has six valance electrons.
six valence electrons
six valence electrons.....It only requires two more to complete octet....
2 valance electrons
There are 27 valance electrons.
Iodine has 7 valance electrons
By looking at the group number you can tell how many valance electrons there are ex: Group 1= 1 valance electrons Group 2-12= 2 valance electrons Group 13= 3 valance electrons Group 14= 4 valance electrons Group 15= 5 valance electrons Group 16= 6 valance electrons Group 17= 7 valance electrons Group 18= 8 valance electrons
Nitrogen has 7 electrons, oxygen has 8 electrons, and chlorine has 9 electrons. That is the total electron count, for inner and outer shells. If you are only concerned with the valance electrons, then it is 5 for nitrogen, 6 for oxygen, and 7 for chlorine.
No, oxygen has 8 electrons in general (in neutral form) but only has 6 valence electrons.
