Explanation:

Oxygen has an atomic number of 8 with 2 electrons in its innermost shell (s orbital) and 6 remaining electrons in its outermost shell.

The electronic configuration of the oxygen element will therefore be expressed as;

1s²2s²2p⁴

Since we are to find the valence electron configuration of oxygen, this means we are going to consider only electrons in the outermost shell. The outermost shell of oxygen only contains 6electrons. The electronic configuration will be;

2s²2p⁴ (ignoring the innermost electrons)

Comparing with As^B2p^C

we will have;

As^B = 2s²

A = 2, B = 2

2p^C = 2p⁴

p^c = p⁴

C = 4

Hence A = 2, B = 2 and C = 4

The oxygen ion is represented as O₂²⁻. Therefore the charge of an oxygen ion is -2

Which term is a scalar quantity?
balu736 [363]
Vector quantities have both magnitude and direction. Distance is a scalar quantity. It refers only to how far an object has traveled. For example, 4 feet is a distance; it gives no information about direction.

Estimate the moment of inertia of a bicycle wheel 66 cm in diameter. The rim and tire have a combined mass of 1.2 Kg
Fed [463]
<span>For a point mass the moment of inertia is just the mass times the square of perpendicular distance to the rotation axis, I = mr^2. That point mass relationship becomes the basis for all other moments of inertia since any object can be built up from a collection of point masses. So the I = (1.2 kg)(0.66m/2)^2 = 0.1307 kg m2</span>

explain why if charge cannot be created or destroyed, electrically neutral objects can become electrically charged
natali 33 [55]
Charge is actually either excessive number or electrons or shortage of them.
as you can't destroy the electron or create it - you can't destroy or create charge
