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

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 that s-p mixing …

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!

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?

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 polarity then …

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 gaseous water: $$\ce …

Feb 26, 2021 · The n-factor for $\ce {O2}$ should be $2$ as can be seen in the first half-reaction, and for $\ce {H2O}$ the n-factor should be $1$, since we have $2$ moles of $\ce {e-}$ in the second half …

Apr 4, 2020 · The equilibrium constant changes, too. The only thing that does not change is the standard cell potential because that is per electron, so to speak, and not per mol of reaction. It is kind of weird …

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 $\ce {O2}$ molecules. …

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 radicals. …
