The electronic configuration for the oxygen atom is [math]1s^2 2s^2 2p^4[/math]. It must acquire 2 electrons to become an ion with a charge of -2 . Thus the electronic configuration for an [math]O^{2 -}[/math] ion is
In atomic physics and quantum chemistry, the electron configuration is the distribution of electrons of an atom or molecule (or other physical structure) in atomic or molecular orbitals. For example, the electron configuration of the neon atom is 1s 2 2s 2 2p 6. Electronic configurations describe electrons as each moving independently in an orbital, in an average field created by all other orbitals. Mathematically, configurations are described by Slater determinants or configuration state functions.
