Jan 9, 2017 · What is the difference between $\ce {O}$ and $\ce {O2}$. If C is carbon and then why $\ce {O2}$ is oxygen.

May 30, 2017 · I just saw something in a chemistry lesson what got me confused. What is the difference between $\\ce{2O}$ and $\\ce{O2}$? Thanks for the help!

And finally there is $\ce {O#O}$ where both oxygens are positively charged and are free radicals. Why are both positively charged? It is because 3 bonds already to oxygen means 1 lone pair …

Jul 18, 2014 · This phenomenon is explained by s-p mixing. All the elements in the second period before oxygen have the difference in energy between the 2s and 2p orbital small enough, so …

Nov 25, 2018 · Likewise $\ce {O2}$ is as much oxygen as atomic oxygen is. The only complication is that what we habitually think of as oxygen is oxygen as a gas comprised of …

May 3, 2016 · Paramagnetic molecules are molecules that have single electrons. When I draw the lewis structure of $\\ce{O2}$, it appears to be a diamagnetic structure. What makes it …

Feb 16, 2018 · -2 Oxygen (O2) generally exists as diradicals i.e. each oxygen bonded to each other through single bonds and the remaining two electrons remains on each oxygen atoms as …

In this case, the enthalpy of $484\ \mathrm {kJ}$ is released when $2\ \mathrm {mol}$ of hydrogen gas react with $1\ \mathrm {mol}$ of oxygen gas to form $2\ \mathrm {mol}$ of …

Apr 29, 2017 · Methane $\\ce{CH4}$ is symmetrical and non polar, and so is oxygen $\\ce{O2}$. But $\\ce{O2}$ doesn't absorb IR. Why is that? People say that if a molecule can change its …

In Earth's atmosphere, the NO formed by lightning, reacts with O2 to form NO2, which then forms HNO3. So in our environment, no NO does not return to N2 and O2, because it reacts with …
