Answer;
C → CO₂ + 4e₋
O₂ + 4e₋→ CO₂
Explanation;
- Given the reaction C + O2 ---> CO2
- During the formation of a carbon dioxide molecule, the carbon atom shares four electrons with the oxygen atom on the left and four electrons with the oxygen atom on the right.
- This means there will be eight electrons around each atom. Two pairs of electrons shared between two atoms make a double bond between the atoms, which is represented by a double dash.
