For the most part, oxygen has 8 electrons. This is oxygen's neutral state.
Oxygen has 6 valence electrons (Electrons in the outer most orbit). However, on the whole, Oxygen has 8 electrons as its atomic number is 8.
It means that there are 8 electrons in the outer most shell of the atom. Atoms with 8 valence electrons are generally stable.
Oxygen 16 is the most common isotope and it has 8 protons, 8 electrons and 8 neutrons

It means that there are 8 electrons in the outer most shell of the atom. Atoms with 8 valence electrons are generally stable.
counting the shared electrons, 8.
The most stable atoms/ions have 8 electrons in their outermost shell.
Oxygen 16 is the most common isotope and it has 8 protons, 8 electrons and 8 neutrons
No the most reactive have 1 or 7 - if they have 8 they are stable
This value could vary from element to element and atoms could have 1 to 8 valence electrons.
