ClO2− = 7+6(2)+1=20

-------------------------------------------------------------

Cl= in group 7A=7

O= in group 6A=6

---------------------------------------------------------------

Add +1 = because we have one (-) negative charge.

How many valence electrons are in the polyatomic ion HPO4 -2?

Hydrogen has 1 valence electron, phosphorus has 5 valence electrons, and oxygen has 6 valence electrons. So, if you totaled all of the valence electrons in the ion HPO42- you'd get 1 + 5 + 6 X 4 + 2 = 32. However, you should realize that the term "valence electron" really only applies to individual atoms, not compounds. The only electrons one would concern themselves with in the HPO42- ion are the 2 that make it an ion.
