Maximum number of covalent bonds that an oxygen atom can make with hydrogen is 2.
- the ground state electronic configuration of oxygen is 2s² 2p⁴ that means it has 6 electrons in its valence shell and require two electrons are required to complete its octate.
- Two bonds are created when an electron donor atom shares the two needed electrons with oxygen. The ability of two oxygen atoms to share valence electrons results in the creation of a double bond between the two atoms.
- There are no longer any empty orbitals in the octet of oxygen after it is complete. As a result, it is unable to accept more electrons or create more bonds.
Therefore, Oxygen can only generate two bonds because it needs two additional electrons to complete its octet, after which it will run out of empty orbitals in which to receive additional electrons and create additional bonds.

THE QUESTION:which letter in the diagram above represents a mountain range in the ocean floor
A.Letter B
B.letter D
C.letter E
D.letter F
THE ANSWER: Based on my research, none of these are truly correct, as A is actually correct. However, I would highly suggests going with B, as it resembles mountains in shape.

- highest energy level for lithium
<u>A</u><u>N</u><u>S</u><u>W</u><u>E</u><u>R</u><u> </u><u>:</u>
- There are 2 electrons on the first energy level and 1 electron on the second. Explain that the first energy level can only have 2 electrons so the next electron in lithium is on the next (second) level. Explain that neon has 10 protons and 10 electrons.
Answer:
SrSO4
Explanation:
According to solubility rules, we know that the sulphates of the elements of group two are insoluble in water. The solubility rules describe what chemical species are soluble in water and what species are not soluble in water.
Generally, all chlorides are soluble in water with exception of chlorides such as silver chloride. The chlorides of group one elements are usually highly soluble in water.
Since SrSO4 is a sulphate of a group two element (strontium) it will be the insoluble solid product of the double displacement reaction described in the question.
multiply the number of each atom with its molecular mass. (see the periodic table)
5*12 + 12*1 = 72 gram per mole.
Or more accurately: 5*12.01078 + 12*1.007947 = 72.149264 g/mole
