I think the like term is 6 hope this is right
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.

Answer:
Molecule
Explanation:
molecule of the substance. You can break the molecule down further, into the atoms that make it up, but those don't have the properties of the original 'compound'.
Here's an example:
-- Sodium is a soft, slippery metal, that explodes when water touches it.
-- Chlorine is a poisonous green gas.
When an atom of Sodium and an atom of Chlorine combine, they make one molecule of a substance called "Sodium Chloride". That's SALT ! It isn't green, it isn't a gas, it isn't poisonous, it isn't soft and slippery, and it doesn't explode when water touches it.
False, as oceans can act as carbon sinks along with forests.
Answer:
Lithium fluoride i think but I am not really sure
But it should be Lithium fluoride
Explanation: that's because neighter boron nor nitrogen contains water
