I THINK C

Explanation: It has a 25% chance of being right so I'd wait if I were you just sayin

Hello, the answer would be C. An electron in the outer energy level of an atom.

Hope this helped :P

what's the

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!

if you need further assistance, let me know: )
