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.

What is the highest occupied energy level in He?
It is 2p. Because the electron configuration for oxygen is 1s2 2s2 2p4, therefore 2p being the greatest or highest energy level
How many energy levels are occupied in an atom of oxygen?
An atom of oxygen has 2 energy levels that are occupied - the first energy level (K shell) can hold up to 2 electrons, and the second energy level (L shell) can hold up to 6 electrons. Oxygen has a total of 8 electrons.
How many electrons are there in 3 shells of O?
There are 8 electrons. 2 in the 1st shell and 6 in the 2nd.
How many electrons are in the third energy level of oxygen?
There is no third energy level of oxygen, there is only two. The second energy level has 6 electrons.
How many electrons are in the third energy level in oxygen?
In oxygen, the third energy level can hold a maximum of 18 electrons. However, oxygen only has 8 electrons in total, so only 2 electrons are found in the third energy level.
What is the highest occupied energy level of oxygen?
2

Oxygen electron energy level?
Oxygen has 8 electrons. The electron configuration for oxygen is 1s^2 2s^2 2p^4. Therefore, its highest energy electrons are in the 2p orbital.
How many electrons are there in 3 shells of O?
There are 8 electrons. 2 in the 1st shell and 6 in the 2nd.
How many electrons are in the third energy level of oxygen?
There is no third energy level of oxygen, there is only two. The second energy level has 6 electrons.
How many electrons in the outermost energy level of oxygen have?
Oxygen has six valence electrons.
How many electrons are in the third energy level in oxygen?
In oxygen, the third energy level can hold a maximum of 18 electrons. However, oxygen only has 8 electrons in total, so only 2 electrons are found in the third energy level.
How many electrons are in the outermost energy level of oxygen?
Oxygen has 6 electrons in its outermost energy level. This means it has a valence of 6.
How many electrons does oxygen have in its first level?
Oxygen has 2 electrons in its first energy level.
How many core electrons are in oxygen?
Oxygen has 8 total electrons, with 2 in the innermost energy level. Therefore, oxygen has 6 core electrons.
What the number of energy levels of oxygen?
Oxygen has 8 electrons, so it will have 8 energy levels.
