valence shell
The valence shell is the outermost shell of the atom. For example, hydrogen (which is located on Period 1) has only one shell and it is its valence shell. Another example, bromine (which is located on Period 4) has four electron shells, and its fourth shell (counting away from the nucleus) is its valence shell containing seven electrons.
All the noble gases have 8 electrons in their valence shell except helium which have 2 electrons in its valence shell.

A magnesium atom has 2 electrons in its valence shell. A magnesium ion has 8 electrons in its valence shell.
Mg or Magnesium has 2 electrons in its Valence shell. If you have the right Periodic Table it should have numbers 1A, 2A,... 3B, ect listed above each column. These numbers represent the number of Electrons in the valence shell of all the elements in that Column.
It has a charge of +2. It forms cation.
Na, Mg
mg is considered an element becaus it has an valency of 2+ thus it must form a covalent bond with another mg atom to have 8 electrons in its outermost shell or valence shell

Krypton is a noble gas; it has 8 electrons in its valence shell.
The valence shell is the outer most shell or imaginary orbit of an atom containing <8 electrons. The electrons in this shell are called 'valence electrons'.

The outermost energy level of an atom is referred to as the valence shell.
