Any element in the 2nd column of the periodic table, for example calcium. A good periodic table to use to answer questions like this is...
Calcium is a non metal element. There are 20 electrons in a single atom.
The order is: Iodine (7 valence electrons) Carbon (4 valence electrons) Calcium (2 valence electrons) Sodium (1 valence electron)
As you move left to right on the periodic table, the number of valence electrons an element has increases. The number of valence electrons an element has corresponds to which group (column) an element is. (This rule does not apply to transition metals...)

The element calcium is in the fourth energy level and second group of the periodic table. This put it in the 's' orbital group with two valence electrons.
The answer your teacher is expecting is "calcium", though your teacher should have worded the question better; there are no alkali metals with 2 valence electrons. Calcium is an alkaline earth.
One. Lithium is a group1 element
1. An element contain only specific atoms of this element and no other atoms. 2. Compounds as calcium aluminates contain both aluminum and calcium.
To determine this look at the periodic table. The larger the atom, the farther its valence electrons are from the nucleus. Therefore, potassium's valence electrons have the highest energy.
Both lithium and potassium are in Group I of the Periodic Table, so they both have one valence electron.
Both lithium and potassium are in Group I of the Periodic Table, so they both have one valence electron.
There is one valence electron in lithium, also in every other alkali metal element.
In addition to hydrogen, all elements in Group I of the periodic table have one valence electron. They are lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium, and francium. The farther you move right on the periodic table the more valence electrons. For example, elements in Group VII have 8 valence electrons except helium.
Boron has 3 valence electrons.Boron has 3 valence electrons.
