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.

In the equation given above, there is conservation of MASS, CHARGE AND ENERGY.
These three parameters are usually conserved during the course of chemical reactions. When any of these parameter experience a reduction during the course of chemical reaction, such loss is always gained by other elements involved in the same reaction, so that at the end of the day, they are not considered as lost.

Sidana [21]
One reaction that destroys o3 molecules in the stratosphere is when an ozone molecule combines with an oxygen atom to form two oxygen molecules, or through certain chemical reactions involving molecules containing hydrogen, nitrogen, chlorine, or bromine atoms. The atmosphere maintains a natural balance between ozone formation and destruction.

If mercury (Hg) and oxygen (O2) were reacted to form mercury oxide how many molecules of each reactant and product would be need
dimulka [17.4K]
In order to get HgO you would need 2Hg+1O2=2HgO. Since oxygen is diatomic you need two when it stands alone causing you to need two mercuries to balance out the reactants and the product I hope this helps

Think of a resource and predict What happens to the resource when competition for it increases
MatroZZZ [7]
Lets say foxes hunt rabbits. If their are too many foxes then they will compete for the rabbits. The rabbits get outnumbered by the amount of foxes so the foxes kill all the rabbits and the rabbits could eventually go extinct.
