Question

In the formation of hydronium ion how many valence electro of oxygen are involved in bond formation

Answer 1

Answer:

3

Explanation:

3 electrons r involved in bond formation

Answer 2

Answer:

4

Explanation:

oxygen have 6 electrons as its valence electron..so in the formation of water ieH2O two elecrons are been combine with two electron of hydron each..And as H+ ion has empty K Shell it can occupy two electron ..thus from the remaining 4 electron H+ occupy 2 electron....Therefore 4 valence electron are involve in the bond formation
