The total number of valence electrons is eight in the lewis structure of H2O i.e. water molecule.
One electron each from the two hydrogen atoms and six electrons from the oxygen atom. The two bonds are formed between two hydrogen and oxygen atom. This is shown in the figure below.
Answer:
- oxidation of alcohols involves the alkyl portion of the molecule, or more specifically, the \(\ce{C-H}\) bonds of the hydroxyl-bearing carbon (the \(\alpha\) carbon). Secondary alcohols, which have only one such \(\ce{C-H}\) bond, are oxidized to ketones, whereas tertiary alcohols, which have no \(\ce{C-H}\) bonds to the hydroxylic carbon, are oxidized only with accompanying degradation into smaller fragments by cleavage of carbon-carbon bonds.
- Because alcohols are easily synthesized and easily transformed into other compounds, they serve as important intermediates in organic synthesis.

Answer:
Explanation:
Area of a circular hubcap is 615 square inches
Area of a circular shaped object is given by :
r is radius of hubcap.
If the radius of the hubcap were quadrupled, it means r' = 4r. New area will become:
A' is new area
New area of the hubcap is 9840 square inches.
Oxygen is participating in non-polar covalent bond(s)
Oxygen forms 2 covalent bond.
This is because oxygen atoms have 6 valence electrons. This means that it has 2 lone pairs and 2 unpaired electrons that are shared in order to achieve octet configuration.
In this chemistry, the 2 lone pairs on the oxygen are not shared with any other atoms. Instead; they are assigned to the oxygen atom. The formal charge on the oxygen atom is zero. Oxygen's atomic number is 8 and is equal to the sum of the number of its valence and inner shell electrons.
<h3>What is non-polar covalent bonding?</h3>
Nonpolar covalent bonding is a kind of covalent bond in which the bonding electrons are shared equally between the two atoms.
