When these elements have five electrons on the outermost shell of electrons.
outermost electrons.
All thed block elements (except d10) have this tendency.
Yes they do. Groups/Families tell the number of valence electrons (the number of electrons in the outermost energy level).
Because they determine how the element will combine with other elements

When these elements have five electrons on the outermost shell of electrons.
By the outermost shell of electrons
number of outermost electrons
This is rightThe outermost electrons account for many of the physical and chemical properties of elements.
number of outermost electrons
they are determined by the outermost shell of electrons
Elements in the same group have the same number of valence electrons.
all the electrons that are available in outermost shell
The number of electrons in the outermost energy shell is usually used in finding the valency of a given element. For instance elements that have two electrons in the outermost energy shell have valency 2.
Valence Electrons are the outermost electrons in an element and they are used for bonding with other elements.
