2017年1月9日 · The common confusion here is that two very different things have the same name. O is a free oxygen atom and 2 O X 2 is two oxygen atoms chemically bound to form an …

2017年5月30日 · 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!

2014年7月18日 · 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 …

2018年11月25日 · But why do we call O2 oxygen is my question? I thought only an atom with 8 protons can be called oxygen?

2016年5月3日 · 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 …

2021年2月19日 · According to molecular orbital theory (MOT), OX2X2+ O X 2 X 2 + has a greater bond order than OX2 O X 2 and two less antibonding electrons. So why is molecular oxygen …

2021年2月26日 · 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 $\ce {e-}$ …

2016年2月28日 · TL;DR: The $\ce {O-O}$ and $\ce {S-S}$ bonds, such as those in $\ce {O2^2-}$ and $\ce {S2^2-}$, are derived from $\sigma$-type overlap. However, because the $\pi$ and …

2017年4月29日 · 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 …

2018年2月16日 · -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 …
