How many valence electrons can an atom have?
That depends on the element in question. Atoms can have anywhere from 1 to 8 valence electrons. For the main group elements, Groups 1,2,13-18, the number of valence electrons are the number in the one's place in their group number, as follows: Group 1 Elements: 1 valence electron Group 2 Elements: 2 valence electrons Group 13 Elements: 3 valence electrons Group 14 Elements: 4 valence electrons Group 15 Elements: 5 valence electrons Group 16 Elements: 6 valence electrons Group 17 Elements: 7 valence electrons Group 18 Elements: 8 valence electrons The transition metals, Groups 3 - 12, are more complicated because they are adding d electrons, some of which behave like valence electrons, and many transition metals can have different numbers of valence electrons. For example manganese can have anywhere from 2 to 7 valence electrons.
What gives the transition elements their stability compared to the s block elements?
The amount of valence electrons, also known as the number electrons in the outermost ring of the atom.
Where do elements have the same number in valence electrons?
Elements in the same group have the same number of valence electrons.
What is the number of valence electrons for group 2 elements?
Group 2 metals have 2 valence electrons. In fact, the number of valence electrons of elements can be deduced from the group number (e.g. group VII elements have 7 valence electrons).
Where are elements with the same number of valence electrons?
All elements in the same group have the same number of valence electrons.
What is the relationship between the group and the number of valence electrons in periodic table?
They are the same! Elements in group IA (alkali metals) have 1 valence electrons. Elements in group IIA (alkaline earth metals) have 2 valence electrons. Group IIIA (boron family) has 3 valence electrons, and so on.
The elements within a group have a similar number of?
Elements in the same group have the same number of valence electrons. These are the outer-shell electrons that react with other elements.
Why elements are called transition?
Transition elements are called transition elements because the electrons in these elements are not in process of filling valence(outermost ) shell instead they are, in case of d-block elements, in process of filling penultimate shell. and in case of f- block elements, electrons are in process of filling next to the penultimate shell.
How can you use a periodic table to predict the number of valence electrons an element has without having to draw the Bohr diagram?
In general, except for the transition elements, the group number will tell you the number of valence electrons. For example, Na is in group 1 and has 1 valence electron. Cl is in group 7 and has 7 valence electrons.
What is the different about the valence electrons for all elements in a group?
The valence electrons for elements in the same group stay the same, since the number of valence electrons corresponds to the group number.
What is the difference between the representative elements and the transition elements?
The elements in group 1 and 2 are the representative elements. Groups 3 through 12 are the transition elements. Transition elements are all metals and are found less noticably than they do across a period of representative elements. representative elements are always found in nature combined with other elements, they are all metals except for hydrogen.
Why are group A elements called Representative elements?
They follow a pattern for valence electrons.
