It is Oxygen. Because Oxygen has the atomic no. - 8. Which means that 2 electrons can accommodate in the inner shell and the rest of the electrons (6 electrons) are in the out shell.

What are the criteria used to placed an element under it is group and period?
it is related to the number of electrons that are in in the outer shell, and the total number of electrons
If an element has a total of 86 electrons is it inert reactive or non reactive?
This is radon, it has a full outer shell of electrons, so it is technically non reactive
What is the total electrons in outer shell of uranium?
Only two electrons.
How many electrons are in each orbit of Chlorine?
17 electrons total - 7 of which are in the outer shell.
Which element has a total of 20 electrons with 2 on the outer level?
Calcium
How many electrons does Magnesium have in its outer most shell?
Magnesium has a total of 12 electrons. The electron configuration would be 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2. Therefore, 2 electrons in it's outer shell.
What are the criteria used to placed an element under it is group and period?
it is related to the number of electrons that are in in the outer shell, and the total number of electrons
How many valence electrons are needed to achieve a full outer shell?
It depends, most atoms need 8 total valence electrons in their outer shell (some need 2). So subtract the number they have (determined by the group that the element is in) from 8 and that is how many they need to fill their outer shell!
What is the total number of electrons found in the valence shell of an alkaline element in the ground state?
244 An interesting answer...I would have thought that they all have 2 electrons in the outer shell in their ground state.
If an element has a total of 86 electrons is it inert reactive or non reactive?
This is radon, it has a full outer shell of electrons, so it is technically non reactive
What is the total electrons in outer shell of uranium?
Only two electrons.
How many electrons does an atom of tellurium have in its outer shell?
Tellurium has a total of 52 electrons in its standard state.
What Is the number of outer shell electrons on Argon?
The number of valence electrons is dependent on which group of the periodic table the element is in.Since Argon is in group 8, it has a total of 8valence electrons.
How many shell in oxygen atom?
Two. An inner shell contains 2 electrons; and an outer shell contains 2 electrons on its near side and 4 more electrons on its outer side. Total of 8 electrons.
How many electrons are in the outer valence shell of a sulfur atom?
The outer valence shell of a sulfur atom contains a total of 6 electrons: two 3s electrons and four 3p electrons.
A total of how many electrons are needed to fill the outer shell of most atoms?
There is a total of 8 electrons that are needed to fill outer shell of most atoms. An atom is the smallest unit of matter.
Is it the number of total electrons or the number of electrons on the outer shell that matters when dealing with bonding?
