What noble gas is isoelectronic to oxygen?

Answer 1

Neon (Ne, atom number 10, noble gas in period 2) has the same electron configuration as O2- ion;

Oxygen as in noble gas configuration has taken up 2 electrons.

O : 1s2, 2s2, 2p4

O2-:1s2, 2s2, 2p6

Ne :1s2, 2s2, 2p6

Answer 2

No. The noble gasses are inert. Oxygen is a member of chalcogen or group 16 family has 6 valence electrons and is chemically highly reactive.

Answer 3

A quick look at a Periodic Table will reveal that neon is only a couple of columns away from oxygen.

Answer 4

Neon is isoelectronic to oxygen, meaning it has the same number of electrons. Both neon and oxygen have 8 electrons in their outer shell.

Answer 5

neon and oxide ion has 10 electrons.

Answer 6

neon

Answer 7

helium
