Answer:

-2

Explanation:

The model of the oxygen atom will probably have an electrical charge of -2.

Now let us explain how to find the charge on any atom.

The charge on an atom is the number of electrons gained or lost by specie. Electrons are usually lost in any atom so that they can attain stability.

These electrons are removed from the valence shell because they are the outermost shell electrons. They are most weakly held electrons in an atom.

An atom of oxygen has:

     8 electrons with a configuration of 1s² 2s² 2p⁴

   Charge = number of protons - number of electrons

        neutral oxygen has 8 electrons and protons, charge is 0

sergey [27]

The answers include:

  • A loaf of risen but unbaked bread - chemical change.
  • Photo by Elinor D - chemical change.
  • Bread dough rising - chemical change.

<h3>What is a Chemical change?</h3>

This involves the formation of a new products from substances. In this scenario, a rising bread contains alcohol which evaporates.

Photographs also fall under this category and is therefore an irreversible chemical change.
