All elements in group four have FOUR valence electrons. This is easy to remember because the group number located at the top of the Periodic Table of elements corresponds precisely in all cases to the experimentally observed number of valence electrons in the elements. It is also important to know that the elements in group eight (the inert gases) all have eight valence electrons, meaning that they can neither gain or lose electrons in the way of bonding with other elements, thus the maximum number of valence electrons any molecule can have is eight.
Group 4A electrons have 4 valence electrons, because it contains 4 valence electrons on the 3rd principle energy.
The valency of group 4 elements usually varies depending on the compound but are usually 4+ or 4-
The expected number of valence electrons for a group 3 A element is 5 number of valence electrons.
It really isn't unusual....it is unique in that the elements have seven valence electrons and all are rather reactive; especially fluorine, which is the most reactive element.
The outer, or valence shell of electrons is closely related to an element's reactivity. First of all, the valence electrons are the only part of an atom that participate in a chemical reaction. The closer an atom's number of valence electrons is to eight (remember the octet rule), the more reactive it typically is. Elements with only 1 valence electron* (group 1) and elements with 7 valence electrons (group 17) are the most reactive. *Remember, having only 1 valence electron means once you lose it, you now have 8 electrons that were in the shell below it.*
In s and p blocks the number of valence electrons in an element is the same number of the group which that element belongs to. Hope this helps....
Silicon is p-block element. It has 4 valence electrons. It is present in group-14.Titanium has 4 valence electrons. It is in the third period. Titanium is a metal element.
The expected number of valence electrons for a group 3 A element is 5 number of valence electrons.
the element with seven valence electrons will be more reactive. The reason for this is that elements want to always want to have a full valence shell (they always want 8, like a noble gas). The element with eight valence electron is happy with its full shell and will not want to get rid of any electrons.

The Group Number of the Element you're working on determines the number of Valence Electrons. Valence electrons are electrons in the outside energy level.

The group of the element indicates the amount of valence electrons. For example, the alkali metals have one valence electron and is in group one whilst the halogens have seven valence electrons and are in group seven.
All elements in the same A group will have the same number of valence electrons.
Two electrons imply that the element is in the second period. The 4 valence electrons says that it is located in group 4A (or group 14 in modern notation). Hence, this element is carbon.The element has 2 electron shells means the element is in the 2nd group. This element is carbon. It has 4 valence electrons.
4 electrons
Valence electrons are electrons that are on the outside "shell." In Group (column) 1, there is only one valence electrons for each element. In Group (column) 2, there are two valence electrons. Group 13: 3 valence electrons Group 14: 4 valence electrons Group 15: 5 valence electrons Group 16: 6 valence electrons Group 17: 7 valence electrons Group 18: 8 valence electrons There is no Group 19, so this list is done. For the metals, each element will need to be mapped out utilizing the Bohr Diagram design or something of the like as valence electrons are difficult to define due to the grouping on the periodic table. The most valence electrons that can be in an outer shell is eight. Barium (Ba) is in Group (column) 2, and thus has only two valence electrons.
In s and p blocks the number of valence electrons in an element is the same number of the group which that element belongs to. Hope this helps....
