Which group number below represents the Oxygen Group?

Physics
1 answer:
worty [1.4K]3 years ago
8 0

Oxygen has an atomic number 8, because it has 8 protons and 8 electrons.

The first shell of an atom can hold up to 2 electrons but oxygen has 8 electrons, in that eight electrons 2 are in the first shell, so it has 6 more electrons left. The second shell can hold up to 8 electrons, oxygen has only 6 more electrons after the first shell is full, so it will have 6 electrons in the second shell

From this we know that oxygen has 2 shells so it is in period 2, and by counting from left to right, the sixth box in period 2 lies on group 16

Therefore Oxygen lies on group 16 and period 2

Happy to help :)

A quantitative description of kinematics involves using ___ th describe the motion
Semmy [17]

Answer:

numbers

Explanation:

Virtually all unimaginable processes can be described as the movement of certain objects. To analyze and predict the nature of the movements that result from the different kinds of interactions, some important concepts such as momentum, force and energy have been invented. If momentum, force, and energy are known and expressed in a quantitative way (that is, by numbers) it is possible to establish rules by which the resulting movements can be predicted.
