    Oxygen is the eighth element with a total of 8 electrons. In writing the electron configuration for oxygen the first two electrons will go in the 1s orbital. Since 1s can only hold two electrons the next 2 electrons for O go in the 2s orbital. The remaining four electrons will go in the 2p orbital.
