The energy is higher.
Silicon has a total of 10 core electrons and 4 valence electrons.
Successive ionization energies to provide evidence for arrangement of electrons into core and valence
valence electrons are bound to atoms and are used to bind atoms into molecules. free electron are free, either they are in the conduction band "electron gas" of a metal or they are in a vacuum (perhaps in a vacuum tube).
Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost shell of an atom. The ones in the inner shell are known as core electrons.
The energy of the valence electrons is greater then the energy of the core electrons.APEX
The energy of the valence electrons is greater than the energy of the core electrons.
The energy of the valence electrons is greater than the energy of the core electrons.

The energy is higher.

2,8,18,7... 28 core electrons 7 valence electrons.
Oxygen as 2 core electrons and 6 valence electrons.
Li+ ion has only 2 electrons in its only shell and they could be considered as both core and valence electrons.
