Remark
The short Answer is 6. That's why the ion has a charge of minus 2. Oxygen is doing it's best to have its outer ring have 8 electrons which is the number of outer electrons contained in the outer ring of the Noble Gas Neon.

Answer 6.

Looking at the periodic table, oxygen is in group 6A, meaning it has 6 valence electrons. Another way to determine this is look for the noble gas in the same row as the element whom's valence electrons you wish to find and subtract 1 valence electron from 8 until you reach the desired element. This will be your amount of valence electrons :)

Using the following equation for the combustion of octane calculate the heat associated with the formation of 100.0 g of carbon
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

The right solution is "-602.69 KJ heat".

Explanation:

According to the question,

The 100.0 g of carbon dioxide:

= \frac{100.0 \ g}{114.33\  g/mole}

= 0.8747 \ moles

We know that 16 moles of CO_2 formation associates with -11018 kJ of heat, then

0.8747 moles CO_2 formation associates with,

= -\frac{0.8747}{16}\times 11018 \ KJ \ of \ heat

= -0.0547\times 11018

= -602.69 \ KJ \ heat
