Solid substances are most likely to sublime if they
a. high or low vapor pressures?
b. weak or strong intermoleculer forces?

a. High vapor pressures

b. Weak intermolecular forces

Explanation:

a. Sublimation occurs when the vapor pressures is equal to the applied pressure in the solid. Therefore, the higher the vapor pressure, the easier it is to be equal to the external pressure and the most likely is the solid to sublime.

b. Sublimation requires intermolecular forces to be weakened in order to go from the solid state to the gas state. Therefore, the weaker the intermolecular forces, the easier sublimation will be.

answer:

the answer is 6 valence electrons.

explanation:

valence is the # of electrons on the outer most shell of an atom.

oxygen has 6.

although, the valency of oxygen is 2, because it only needs to make 2 covalent bonds, or gain 2 electrons, to achieve the stable octet configuration of a noble gas.

that's it!
