Oxygen Atoms

Two oxygen atoms are shown side-by-side. Each has six valence electrons, two that are paired and two that are unpaired. An arrow indicates that a reaction takes place. After the reaction, the four unpaired electrons join to form a double bond. This double bond can also be depicted by an equal sign between two Os.

Figure 2.10 (OpenStax, Biology 2e) caption: A double bond joins the oxygen atoms in an O2 molecule.
