Question

Valency of carbon is 4 and valency of oxygen is 2. Write the molecule of carbon dioxide? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Valency of carbon is 4 and that of oxygen is 2. From this, we understand that there are 2 chemical bond/bonds between the carbon atom and one oxygen atom in the compound-carbon dioxide.

Hope it helps you.

Answer 2

Answer:

CO2

Explanation:

Carbon - C

Oxygen - O

As there are 4 valent electrons in carbon and oxygen has 2  they will share the electrons forming a bond which results in the formation of carbon dioxide

Each oxygen atom will donate 2 electrons each

Its molecular Formula is CO2
