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!

Nov 25, 2018 · But why do we call O2 oxygen is my question? I thought only an atom with 8 protons can be called oxygen?

Jul 18, 2014 · S-p mixing is the primary cause of the difference in the molecular orbitals of nitrogen and oxygen, which is influenced by the initial atomic orbital energies. The lighter second period elements …

Apr 13, 2025 · The enthalpy of formation of O2 is zero at any particular temperature. The element is already in its ''standard state'' . Also please note that as per IUPAC, there is no standard …

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 paramagnetic?

Dec 10, 2022 · Answer 1 does not describe the environment in my post. Thermodynamics says nothing about how the energy of chemical bonds is converted to the kinetic energy of H2O produced by this …

The reaction between hydrogen and oxygen to yield water vapor has ΔH∘ = − 484kJ Δ H ∘ = 484 k J. How much pV p V work is done, and what is the value of ΔE Δ E in kilojoules for the reaction of 0.50 …

$\\ce{O2}$ has a double bond in its normal form. That is $\\ce{O=O}$. There are no unpaired electrons in this case are there since there are 2 lone pairs on each oxygen. However 1 resonance structure

Dec 11, 2021 · In the typical way these terms are used, the LUMO can't be the same as the HOMO. Since each of the pi spatial orbitals already have one electron, they are not unoccupied, so they can't …
