Explanation:

The n = 1 means the first shell of an atom whereas n = 2 means the second shell of an atom and so on.

As every atom consists of three sub-atomic particles which are protons, neutrons and electrons.

Protons and neutrons reside inside the nucleus of an atom and electrons revolve outside the nucleus of the atom.

A covalent bond is defined as the bond formed by sharing of electrons between the two combining atoms.

Therefore, the given questions are answered as follows.

There are 2 electrons in the n = 1 orbit of each atom.

Each atom has 8 electrons in its n = 2 orbit, after the sharing of electrons take place between both the oxygen atoms.

Each atom has 8 protons in its nucleus.

Each atom has 8 total electrons.

There are 6 electrons in oxygen's outer shell before sharing electrons.

There are 4 electrons being shared between the two atoms.

Double bonds exist between the two oxygen atoms. This is because sharing of two electrons is taking place. Hence, a double covalent bond exists when two oxygen atoms when they chemically combine together.

Protons 8 8

Electrons 8 10

Neutrons 8 8 ← only for the oxygen-16 isotope.

* The number of neutrons depends on the specific isotope. It is equal to the mass number of the isotope less the number of protons.

Explanation:

Oxygen is the element with atomic number 8. That means that the oxygen atoms have 8 protons.

Protons have relative positive charge equal to +1 and electrons have relative negative charge -1: same magnitude opposite sign.

Thus, the neutral oxygen, O, has also 8 electrons and 8 protons.

As per the number neutrons it depends on the specific isotope.

The isotopes are identified by the mass number, which is the number of protons plus neutrons. For instance, oxygen-16 isotope has mass number 16, 8 protons and 8 neutrons, while oxygen-15 isotope has mass number 15, 8 protons and 7 neutrons.

Oxide ion O²⁻ is the oxygen ion with -2 charge, meaning that it has 2 more electrons than protons. Then, it has 8 protons and 10 electrons, again the number of neutrons depend of the specific isotope.

The stability of an atoms or ion refers to its trend to remain in the same state or react to form another species. The ions O²⁻ are less stable than the neutral atoms O, because the negative charge will be attracted to any positive ion so ti will react faster than the neutral oxygen atom (O).

The point at which one drop of base turns the acid indicator into a pink color that lasts for thirty seconds in doing titration is called the end point or the equivalence point.

End point or the equivalence point is the one responsible for the pink color that lasts for thirty seconds.

During an endothermic phase change, what happens to the potential energy and the kinetic energy?

antiseptic1488 [7]

During endothermic phase change, the potential energy of the system always increases while the kinetic energy of the system remains constant. The potential energy of the reaction increases because energy is been added to the system from the external environment.

Explanation:

Those are three distinct methods for demonstrating a specific energy condition of an object. They don't affect one another.

"Potential Energy" is a relative term showing a release of possible energy to the environment. If we accept its pattern as the overall energy state of a compound, at that point, an endothermic phase change would infer an increase in "potential" as energy is being added to the compound by the system.

A phase change will display an increase in the kinetic energy at whatever point the compound is transforming from a high density to a low dense phase. The kinetic energy will decrease at whatever point the compound is transforming from a less dense to high dense phase.
