you put the atom in a hole and it will multiply.

the correct ans is:an atom with complete valence shell is consider stable.

How many valence electrons are in a full outer shell?

8 - called valence electrons. it doesn't matter what energy level or orbital shape. a "happy atom" has 8 valence electrons


What is the reactivity of an atom determined by?

It's determine by the vacancy (unfilled orbital) in the outermost shell of an atom.


How many electrons are in the valence shells of group 1?

There are 2 electrons in the first valence shell ("orbital"). The first orbital is an "s" orbital. If the atom is neutral in charge and there is only 1 electron - you have Hydrogen. If the atom is neutral in charge and you have only 2 electrons - you have Helium. Since the outermost shell of electrons is full, considerable chemical stability is conferred to the Helium atom, thus it is a member of the "Noble Gases" - those that have full comlpements of electrons in their outer shells, the others being Neon, Argon, Krypton, Xenon, and Radon.


How are valence electrons imoprtant?

Valence electrons can determine the reactivity of the atom. An atom with a full shell of valence electrons, like neon, will be less reactive than an atom with only one electron in its valence shell, like sodium.


How do the atoms in molecular compounds form stable electron arrangements?

An atom is stable (i.e. non-reactive) when it's valence orbitals are full. An orbital is essentially an available place for an electron to orbit (or the shape of the electron 'cloud' in quantum models). The 'valence' orbital is the outside orbital of that particular atom. Atoms form stable compounds when they can share electrons to mutual advantage. For example, carbon has only 2 electrons in its valence orbitals, but has room for 6. Therefore, carbon is stable when it can form a compound with something that will let it share share 4 electrons.

When an atom gains an electron to create full valence it results in that atom having a net charge of what?

If one electron is gained, then it has a charge of -1.

A full valence shell of electrons means that the atom is unstable and likely to combine with other atoms?

No: A full valence shell means the atom is very stable and has little likelihood of combining with other atoms.


Explain how valence electrons in an atom are used to form a full outermost energy level?

The electrons on the outermost energy level of the atom are called valence electrons.
