- What is the difference between O O2 - Chemistry Stack Exchange
The common confusion here is that two very different things have the same name is a free oxygen atom and 2 is two oxygen atoms chemically bound to form an oxygen molecule There is no common analogy for , but 2 is called nitrogen, 2 is hydrogen and 2 is chlorine, each having the same name as that of their constituent elements So, to reiterate, the difference between oxygen and oxygen X2 2 is
- Why is oxygen an oxidizing agent? - Chemistry Stack Exchange
Why are diatomic oxygen molecules STILL reactive especially with metallic elements like sodium and copper even at room temperature? You would think that since the two oxygen atoms already have the
- Why is oxygen paramagnetic? - Chemistry Stack Exchange
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?
- Why is oxygen more stable than oxygen dication?
According to molecular orbital theory (MOT), $\\ce{O2^2+}$ has a greater bond order than $\\ce{O2}$ and two less antibonding electrons So why is molecular oxygen $\\ce{O2}$ more stable than the molec
- orbitals - What is the origin of the differences between the MO schemes . . .
Here are the MO schemes of NX2 N X 2 (left) and OX2 O X 2 (right) Why is the σ σ -MO formed by the p p AOs energetically above the π π -MO for NX2 N X 2 but not for OX2 O X 2? Can it be explained this way: In second period elements with more than a half filled p p orbitals, the energy pattern of the MOs is regular In second period elements with less than or half filled p p orbitals, as

- Whats the difference between 2O and O2 [duplicate]
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!
- Why do we call O2 oxygen? - Chemistry Stack Exchange
But why do we call O2 oxygen is my question? I thought only an atom with 8 protons can be called oxygen?
