Electrons are transferred when ionic bonds are formed.
Since the valence electrons are the outermost electrons of atoms, they have the highest opportunity to overlap with other orbitals in the valence shells of other atoms. Therefore, they influence the most in forming bonds.
Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost shell of an atom. The ones in the inner shell are known as core electrons.
Let's use Iron for example (since it is a transition metal, so it can have different number of electrons). Iron (II) has two valence electrons. It combines with chlorine to form FeCl2 Iron (III) has three valence electrons and will combine with chlorine to form FeCl3 The bond formed would still be the same (ionic in both cases), but the energy level would be different.
Valence electrons-electrons that are farthest from an atoms nucleus- are the electrons that form bonds with other atoms.
In most compounds, valence electrons are involved in forming bonds.

Outside the nucleus, electrons are present in their orbits. The valence electrons present outside is involved in forming bonds with other atoms. (figure it out yourself scrub)
Valence electrons.
Electrons are transferred when ionic bonds are formed.
The outer or valence electrons are the ones involved in bonding.Valence electrons
the valence electrons take place i.e, the electrons present on outermost shell.
The valence electron are involved in the sharing of electrons with the other atoms to form ionic bonds.

Carbon has for valence electrons for forming covalent bonds.
Since the valence electrons are the outermost electrons of atoms, they have the highest opportunity to overlap with other orbitals in the valence shells of other atoms. Therefore, they influence the most in forming bonds.
