As a chemical bond between two Chlorine atoms is broken, the potential energy of these atoms A) decreases
B) increases
C) remains the same
D) changes depending on the temperature
E) changes depending on the pressure

tracks, burrows, eggshells, nests, tooth marks, or gastroliths

that tool would be a compass

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!

if you need further assistance, let me know: )
