these atoms offer the least amount of resistance for knocking the valence electron out of its orbit.
You can determine how many valence electrons an atom has by what family the element of the atom is in. For instance, if the element is in family 8A, the number of valence electrons will be 8. Or, if the element is in family 2A, the number of valence electrons for the atom will be 2. So, whatever number family the atom is in, the number of valence electrons equals that.
The electron cloud increases the amount of valence shells it has with the increase of electrons in the atoms
Simplest method - apply a voltage to a conductor.
No, they do not. However, elements in the same group have the same number of valence electrons.
Lithium has only one valence electron. A valence electron is an unpaired electron available for bonding with other elements. This makes lithium is a highly reactive element that can bond rapidly and often violently with any element having four to seven valence electrons (or with hydrogen).
Francium has 87 electrons; one is the valence electron.

Sodium and Lithium are in the same group in the periodic table and tend to have similar properties, for example, adding a small amount to water will result in a "fizzing" type of reaction. Other elements in this group such as caesium react with water in a similar fashion only far more violently.

H2 is not an atom, it is a diatomic molecule. Each hydrogen atom has 1 valence electron. When two hydrogen atoms covalently bond to form an H2 molecule, there are two valence electrons being shared by the two atoms.
If you can find a dot diagram, look at the outer shell and count the electrons. The outer electrons is the amount of valence electrons.

The group of the element indicates the amount of valence electrons. For example, the alkali metals have one valence electron and is in group one whilst the halogens have seven valence electrons and are in group seven.
No, they do not. However, elements in the same group have the same number of valence electrons.
The number of valence electron will be required. It will describe the amount of charge.
