Oxygen receives 2 electrons, so it has the electronic configuration
like neon.
noble gases are those gases which dont react with anything. they are also called inert gases. oxygen is not one of them because it does react; infact, all the burning processes cant take place without oxygen.

Oxygen is a non metal.

No! oxygen does not react with a noble gas because a noble gas does not want any electrons. This means, it's outer shell or valence shell is filled with electrons.
noble gases are those gases which dont react with anything. they are also called inert gases. oxygen is not one of them because it does react; infact, all the burning processes cant take place without oxygen.
Metals like sodium,potassium get noble gas configuration by losing electrons. Elements like nitrogen,oxygen get noble gas configuration by gaining electrons. Halogens get noble gas configuration by sharing electrons.
O is the symbol for Oxygen, which is not a noble gas.No, Oxygen (O) is in group 6 and the noble gases (or inert gases) are in group 8.oxygen is not a noble gas because in order to become a noble gas it is necessary to have a completely filled outermost shell. as oxygen has only 6 electrons in its outermost shell it is not a noble gas because noble gases have 8 electrons which completely fill the outermost shell

Oxygen should gain 2 electrons to achieve noble gas configuration
