How are valence electrons related to stability?
Valence electrons are the outermost electrons in an atom, and they determine the atom's chemical properties. Atoms with a full valence shell of electrons tend to be stable because they have a lower energy state. Atoms will gain, lose, or share electrons to achieve a full valence shell, which increases their stability.
How many additional valance electrons does fluorine need to have a valance shell?
1
How many electrons does bromine need to fill its valence shell?
Based on the octet rule, bromine requires exactly one electron to fill its valence shell.
How many electrons in the outer energy level does bromine have?
Bromine has 7 electrons in its outer energy level, making it one electron short of a full outer shell.
How many electrons does chlorine have on the outer shell?
chlorine has 6 electrons in the outer shell. although these have a special name, they are called valance electrons.
What makes a group not reactive on the periodic table?
A full octet, valance shell. A valance shell with eight electrons, such as the Nobel gases have, doe not need to donate or accept electrons into or out of the valance shell to be stable.
How many valance electrons in neon?
Eight - it has a full outer shell of electrons.
How many valence electronss are there in Boron?
There are three valance electrons. These are the electrons in the outer shell if it is not full.

Element bromine electrons outer shell?
Bromine has 7 electrons in its outer shell, making it part of group 17 on the periodic table. This means it only needs 1 more electron to complete its octet and attain a stable electron configuration. As a halogen, bromine can gain an electron to achieve a full outer shell or share electrons to form compounds.
When a valance shell has 7 electrons will it gain or lose an electron?
It will gain an electron so that it can complete a full outer shell of 8 electrons.

Why do you think non metals tend to be good at sharing electrons?
All atoms are more stable when their outer most electron shell (valance shell also refered to as a valance orbital but it is slightly different) is full of electrons. Non metals generally have almost full valance shells and it takes less energy to gain a few electrons to reach the stable full outer shell than to lose many electrons to form a stable full outer shell. Take F as an example - it has 7 electrosn in its outermost shell and this shell can fit 8. It will accept 1 electron more easily than losing 7.
How many electrons in the outer energy level does bromine have?
Bromine has 7 electrons in its outer energy level, making it one electron short of a full outer shell.
