which element shown is doubled bonded?
oxygen
nitrogen
chlorine

Explanation:

Oxygen commonly forms double bonds (e.g., in \( \ce{O2} \) or in compounds like \( \ce{CO2} \)). Nitrogen typically forms triple bonds (e.g., in \( \ce{N2} \)) and chlorine usually forms single bonds (e.g., in \( \ce{Cl2} \) or ionic compounds). So among the options, Oxygen is the one that is double - bonded.

Answer:

A. Oxygen
