Atoms can complete their set of valence electrons by either taking some from another element (ionic bond), or by sharing valence electrons with another element (covalent bond).
An ionic bond is usually between a non-metal and a metal, and a covalent bond is usually between two non-metals.

How with 5 valence electrons will achieve a full set of valence electrons?
If you're asking how will an atom with 5 valence electrons will achieve a full set of valence electrons, then the answer would be that they bond with other atoms to gain a full set of the valence electrons by sharing or gaining 3 electrons.
How many electrons will a metal generally have in its outer energy level?
Every transition metal has a different number of electrons, they go from 21-30 electrons, then 39-48 elctrons, then 71-80 electrons, and 103-112 electrons.
How will atoms with 5 valence electrons achieve a full set of valence electrons?
They will gain 3 electrons from something with 3 valence electrons.
What an atom becomes when it has a complete set of electrons?
STABLE
What makes group 1 the most reactive?
If I recall correctly, it's because they don't have any electrons in their atoms. Atoms react in order to get a full set of 8 electrons, and the less electrons an atom has, the more likely they are to react.
Why does iodine tends to share electrons with another iodine atoms?
So this way it gets 8 electrons in it's valence, creating a full set.
Which set of symbols represents atoms with the same valence electrons in the same electron shell?
Sr, Sn, I
What is the reactivity of noble gases in the terms of electrons?
Atoms with eight valence electrons are unlikely to transfer electrons to other atoms or to share electrons with other atoms. As a result, inert gases do not react easily with other elements.Your welcome fellow students... bye.
Which group has a complete set of valence electrons in their outer energy level?
noble gases
Which group has a complete set of valence electrons in their outermost energy level?
The noble gasses.
Which atoms have a full set of valence electrons that's less than 8?
All of them. Except the noble gases.
What is the best description of the end result of chemical bonding for most atoms?
Getting a full set of valence electrons
