How many electrons does a neutral atom of oxygen usually have in it's outer orbit?
Oxygen has 6 valence electrons. These are in the outer orbit.
How many electrons does a neutral atom of oxygen O usually have in its outer orbit?
A neutral atom of oxygen has 6 electrons in it's most outer orbit. Generally, if you count horizontally from left-to-right on the periodic table, you get the number of electrons in its' most outer orbit. You start every row with 1, of course. :) Hope that helps!
Why does magnesium and oxygen form an ionic bond?
Oxygen have 6 electrons on the outer sell so it need 2 more electrons to gain full outer shell. Magnesium have 2 electrons on the outer sell so It have to lose 2 electrons to gain full outer sell. They combine easily by a strong ionic bond. Its formula is MgO, it has no overall charge.
Can oxygen accept and donate electrons?
Under normal conditions of temperature and pressure, oxygen gains electrons. The outermost orbital in an oxygen atom has four electrons., i.e., the outermost orbit has six electrons. Hence, to reach the octet configuration, oxygen can take two more electrons. Thus, oxygen is electronegative.
How many valence electrons are in o?
O - Oxygen has 6 valence electrons.
Do all elements in the Oxygen family have two electrons in its outer most orbit?
All elements in the oxygen family have 6 electrons in the outer orbit.

How many electrons held in the second orbit of oxygen?
6
What is the number of electrons that can be held in the frist orbit?
Two (2) electrons can be held in the first orbit.
What elements on the periodic table has six valence electrons?
Oxygen, with a electron number of 8 there are two electrons on the first orbit ring and six an the outer ring(shell) those are the valence electrons
How many electron does oxy gen have?
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.
What electrons are in oxygen valence?
An oxygen atom has two valence electrons.
