How many valance electrons does oxygen have?

Oxygen has 6 valence electrons. A person can determine the number of valence electrons by looking at the periodic table. since oxygen is in the 6th column form the left, it has 6 valence electrons.


What is the element whose atom has 8 electrons when neutral?

The number of electrons corresponds to the "index" number of the element in the periodic table. The 8th element is Oxygen, which has 8 atoms when neutral. That didnt answer the question. ANSWER Neon has 8 electrons :)


How many electrons are in the outermost energy level of an oxygen atom as it shares electrons with hydrogen atoms as part of water molecule?

An oxygen atom has 6 electrons in its outermost energy level. When it shares electrons with two hydrogen atoms to form a water molecule, oxygen will share 2 of its electrons with each hydrogen atom, allowing each hydrogen to complete its outermost energy level with 2 electrons. This results in oxygen having a full outermost energy level with 8 electrons.


How many electrons are needed for OF2?

For OF2, oxygen (O) has 6 electrons, and fluorine (F) has 9 electrons each. Therefore, the total number of electrons needed to form OF2 is 6 (from oxygen) + 2 x 9 (from two fluorine atoms) = 24 electrons.


In photosynthesis the source of electrons is?

The source of electrons in photosynthesis is water. Water molecules are split during the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis, releasing oxygen and electrons that are used to drive the production of ATP and NADPH.
