This is because oxygen (2.8.6) requires two electrons on its valence shell to attain stable configuration (2.8.8). Hydrogen (1) on the other hand requires one electron on its valence shell to attain stable configuration (2). Therefore in a covalent bond, it requires two hydrogen and one oxygen to share electrons and achieve stable configuration.
Answer:
c
Explanation:
i read a artical on him and it said

Chlorine will have the slowest rate of diffusion because it has the highest relative molecular mass of 71 followed by O₂ with 32, then Neon 20 then He with 2
The rate of diffusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its relative molecular mass.
