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 atoms have 6 valence electrons, while sulfur atoms have 6 valence electrons as well.
Oxygen has six valence electrons.
In the compound Al₂O₃, there are two aluminum (Al) atoms and three oxygen (O) atoms. Aluminum has 3 valence electrons, so 2 Al atoms contribute a total of 6 valence electrons. Oxygen has 6 valence electrons, so 3 O atoms contribute 18 valence electrons. Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in Al₂O₃ is 6 + 18 = 24 valence electrons.
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.
The number of valence electrons in CH2O is 14. Carbon contributes 4, each of the two hydrogen atoms contributes 1, and oxygen contributes 6 valence electrons.
The answer is c. Valence electrons are shared between oxygen atoms & D. Four valence eletrons are shared
The atoms with six valence electrons are the elements of group sixteen. This list includes O, S, Te, Se, and Po. If you would like to answer this yourself, just remember that the last digit of the group number is typically the number of valence electrons that you will have. The exceptions of course are the transitional metals from group 3 to 12 and the lanthanides and actinides like uranium and plutonium. These have 2 valence electrons.
The chemical properties of an atom depend on the number of electrons in its outermost shell, known as the valence electrons. These electrons determine how atoms interact with other atoms to form chemical bonds.
Valence electrons are shared between oxygen atoms, Four valence electrons are shared.
Oxygen atoms have 6 electrons in the highest occupied energy level. They are two 2s electrons and four 2p electrons. All elements in Group 16 have 6 valence electrons. For Groups 13-18, subtract 10 from the group number and that gives you the number of valence electrons (the electrons in the highest energy s and p orbitals). The Group 1 elements have one valence electron and the Group 2 elements have two valence electrons. The transition metals can vary in the number of valence electrons. You can't necessarily go by group number for them.
Serine has five valence electrons. It has three valence electrons from the oxygen atom and one valence electron each from the carbon and nitrogen atoms in its structure.
