【●3 Steps】How Many Electrons Does Oxygen(O) Have?||Number of Electrons in Oxygen(O)

How Many Electrons Does Oxygen(O) Have?||Number of Electrons in Oxygen(O)




Now I would like to show you how many electrons oxygen have in just three steps.







             Step-1:



First,we need to look for the symbol for oxygen in the  periodic table.


From periodic table,we see that the symbol for oxygen is O.
Atomic number of oxygen



                Step-2:

From periodic table ,we observe that the atomic number of oxygen is 8.




                 Step-3:

We know that the atomic number of oxygen is 8.This means that we have 8 protons. The charge of proton is +1.On the other hand,  the charge of electron is -1.

So for neutral oxygen , we have   8 negative charges which are electrons.


Therefore,the number of electrons in oxygen is 8.



                Step-4:

Now we do electronic configuration of oxygen .

O(8)=1s²2s²2p⁴

💝In oxygen

◆1s subshell holds two electrons

◆2s subshell holds two electrons

◆2p  subshell holds four electrons

Totally,we are getting eight electrons in oxygen.
