Elemental oxygen is found as a diatomic gas O2 or the reactive triatomic gas O3 rather than as a metal. Chemically it is considered to be a non metal as it forms ionic compounds with many metals. Oxygen has 6 valence electrons and has to 'gain' two more electrons to be stable.
Oxygen is a nonmetal. Oxygen 2 is a molecule composed of two oxygen atoms, and like all oxygen atoms, it is classified as a nonmetal on the periodic table.
FeO is not a nonmetal; it is a compound composed of iron (a metal) and oxygen (a nonmetal).
Carbon is a nonmetal. Thus this is a nonmetal oxide.
Sodium oxide is a compound made up of the metal sodium and the nonmetal oxygen. Sodium is a metal, while oxygen is a nonmetal.
No, oxygen, as a nonmetal element, cannot have an expanded octet in its valence shell.
Oxygen is a nonmetal. Oxygen 2 is a molecule composed of two oxygen atoms, and like all oxygen atoms, it is classified as a nonmetal on the periodic table.
Oxygen is nonmetal because since oxygen isn't visable it's not solid so oxygen is nonmetal.
nonmetal
No, oxygen is not a metalloid. Oxygen is a nonmetal, located in group 16 of the periodic table.
FeO is not a nonmetal; it is a compound composed of iron (a metal) and oxygen (a nonmetal).
Carbon is a nonmetal. Thus this is a nonmetal oxide.
No, it does not.
No. Oxygen is a nonmetal.
Sodium oxide is a compound made up of the metal sodium and the nonmetal oxygen. Sodium is a metal, while oxygen is a nonmetal.
Yes, oxygen is an active nonmetal. It is highly reactive and forms compounds with many elements.
hey
Oxygen is a nonmetal.
