A(n) is the average distance of the electron to the nucleus of an atom.
O electron spin
O principle energy level
orientation
orbital shape
O none of these

answer:

the answer is 6 valence electrons.

explanation:

valence is the # of electrons on the outer most shell of an atom.

oxygen has 6.

although, the valency of oxygen is 2, because it only needs to make 2 covalent bonds, or gain 2 electrons, to achieve the stable octet configuration of a noble gas.

that's it!
