O-2 ion has 10 electrons in total.
A sulfate ion consists of one sulfur atom, four oxygen atoms, and two "excess" electrons from another source. Each sulfur atom has 16 electrons, each oxygen atom has 8 electrons, so that the total is 16 + (4 X 8) + 2 = 50. The question of "bonding electrons" is not quite so clear. When acting as an ion, each sulfate ions has two electrons available for ionic bonding. Internal bonding within each sulfate ion is generally supposed to correspond to two sulfur-oxygen double bonds with four bonding electrons each, two sulfur-oxygen single bonds with two bonding electrons each, and the two excess electrons, for a total of 14.
I'm not sure this question has any meaning. That is, the words each mean something, but when you arrange them in this way, it's sort of like asking what color five is.
There are 16 electrons in an oxygen molecule as each oxygen atom has 8 electrons.

Ok, if you have Sapling h.w....the answer is... ions with 6d electrons..Fe2+, Ru2+, Os2+ ions with 10d electrons..Zn2+, Cd2+ the question is just asking...which element has d^6 and d^10 in its electronic configuration?
Sulfur is a non metal element. There are 16 electrons in a single atom.
