The charge of a valence Electron is negative. The word valence means the combining power of atoms: the combining power of atoms or groups measured by the number of electrons the atom or group will receive, give up, or share in forming a compound. Therfore nothing changes the electrons charge. The electrons charge will always be negative no matter what. Electrons make up the stable atoms. If it the atom gains or looses an electron it becomes either a positive (looses an electron) or negative (gains an electron) ion.

What is the valance electron of lithium atom that is easily remove to form a lithium with a charge of 1?

The valence electron of a lithium atom is in the 2s orbital. It is easily removed to form a lithium ion with a charge of +1 because lithium only has one valence electron, making it relatively easy to lose.

Chlorine has 7 valance electrons so the easiest way for it to fill it's valance shell and have an octet is to be an electron acceptor; an anion.

What is the number of valance electrons as you move right across a row or period in the periodic teale?

It depends on which group you are talking about. The number of valance electron normally increase by one as you move right across the table. when you get to the transition metals however, the valance electron will vary.


What is ionic bonding structure?

Ionic bond is when a non-metal takes the metals valance electrons so both atoms can be balanced. Take NaCl for example. Na has one valance electron and Cl only needs one to get eight. So Cl takes Na's one valance electron...:Cl: Na. See the empty spot for Cl, that where Na's valance electron will go.'
