Some animal studies showed that using diets including soluble fiber (oat bran) helped eliminate the C-diff infection sooner than a diet with insoluble fiber (wheat bran). Foods high in soluble fiber include: oats and oat bran, oatmeal, beans, peas, carrots, barley, citrus fruits, strawberries and apple pulp.
Similarly, it is easier for oxygen to gain 2 electrons instead of loosing 6 electrons: Oxygen Ion. The two gained electrons (purple dots) means that this oxygen ion has 10 electrons (-10 charge) and only 8 protons (+8 charge), giving the ion a net charge of -2. Symbolically, we can represent this oxygen ion as O -2.
Report Abuse. Start by drawing O-N-O. Count the total number of valence electrons. 6 for each oxygen (12) plus 5 for nitrogen plus one for the negative charge, total of 18. Count the bonds you used (4 electrons) and you've got 14 left. Put lone pairs around the terminal atoms (oxygens) to satisfy their octets.You'll use 12 electrons in that process.eport Abuse.
