A lone oxygen atom has 6 electrons in its outer shell which is not very stable, whereas as full octet (8 outer shell electrons) is stable. In order to achieve this two oxygen atoms will share 4 electrons, each contributing 2 electrons. Since these electrons exist within the orbitals of both atoms, to oxygen atoms essentially achieve a full octet.
The balanced chemical reaction is:
<span>2H2O= 2H2 + O2
</span>
We are given the amount of oxygen to be produced in the reaction. The starting point for the calculations will be this amount.
50 g ( 1 mol O2 / 32 g O2 ) ( 2 mol H2O / 1 mol O2 ) ( 18.01 g H2O / 1 mol H2O) = 56.28 g of H2O is needed.
Therefore, the correct answer is the last option.

Answer:
a correct Lewis diagram for CO2 would look something like this
Explanation:
One C and 2 O. Both O have 4 extra dots and 2 lines/bonds to the C. C has no extra dots.
Hope this helps!
