 (c) The energy diagram below is for the eight electrons present in an oxygen atom. Complete the diagram for an oxygen atom by adding labels to identify the other occupied sub-shells (cid:120) (cid:120) arrows to show how the remaining six electrons are arranged in the orbitals. (2)energy1s(cid:1)(cid:1) (d) Successive ionization energies provide evidence for the arrangement of electrons in atoms. The eight successive ionization energies of oxygen are shown in the table below.
