How do you think we could solve the problem of plastic pollution in our oceans?

Starting from your own home is the best way to reduce plastic pollution. You can reduce it by stop using plastic bags, water bottles, anything that is plastic. You can reuse things instead. Use less energy. Turn off the lights whenever you leave the house or if you aren't using it. Lastly, conserve water. Don't let the water running if you aren't using it.

Hope this helps! :)

I recommend you search this same question, and you'll find the answer. If I were to answer your question theoretically, I would copy and paste the answer I searched, but but use some of my own words.

answer:

the answer is 6 valence electrons.

explanation:

valence is the # of electrons on the outer most shell of an atom.

oxygen has 6.

although, the valency of oxygen is 2, because it only needs to make 2 covalent bonds, or gain 2 electrons, to achieve the stable octet configuration of a noble gas.

that's it!
