The given figure depicts the atomic structure of element X. write its atomic number, atomic mass, valence electrons and valency whether it is a metal or a non metal. 

Atomic number = 8
Atomic mass = 18
Valency = 2
It is a non-metal as it gains electrons to complete its octet.

The given diagram represents oxygen element. The atomic number of oxygen is 8 as the atomic number = Number of protons present in the nucleus of the atom. The atomic mass is 16 as Atomic mass = Number of protons + Number of Neutrons present in the atom.

atomis number - 8
atomic mass number - 8+10 = 18
valence electrons - 0(stable)
non metal

its atomic no is 8 as it has 8 protons.Atmic mass is 18 as proton and neutron are 8 and 10 respectively.The outer most shell has 6 electron so valence electrons are 6.Sice valence electron are 6 then valency is equal to 8-6=2.it needs to gain 2 electrons.This implies that the element is a non metal
