How Many Valence Electrons Does CO2 (Carbon Dioxide) Have?


Answer:
CO2 has 16 valence electrons ,four from carbon and twelve from two oxygen atom.

Explanation:

Today we are going to determine the valence electrons for CO2 (Carbon Dioxide).


               Step-1:

Carbon is the element of group IV A.This means that carbon has four valence electrons.


On the other hand, oxygen is the element of group VIA.This means that Oxygen has six valence electrons.


                   Step-2:

For ,CO2

  4

2×O  6×2=12

So, totally we have 16 valence electrons in CO2,four from carbon and twelve from two oxygen atom.
