Sulfur. It has six valence electrons. These six electrons plus the ten core electrons, 16, the atomic number (number of electrons or the number of protons [they are an equal amount because the positive and negative charges have to cancel each other out]). It is sulfur.
Silicon has a total of 10 core electrons and 4 valence electrons.
Selenium is Atominc number: 34 It has 6 Valence electrons Therefore you take 6 from 34: 28 core electrons
Take carbon as an example.Carbon, indicated by it's atomic number, has 6 electrons. The number at the top of carbon's group is the number of valance electrons. Carbon has 4 valance elections.6 total electrons - 4 valance electrons= 2 core electrons in carbon=====================(try another element yourself to see this process )
18(Atomic Number:19 minus the group number:1)19-1=18 core electrons
the atomic core charge of an atom is the same as the number of valence electrons in the atom
Nitrogen has 2 core electrons and 5 valence electrons. If you remember, nitrogen has an atomic number of 7. When an atom is neutral it has an equal number of protons and electrons. Therfore, the overal number of electrons is 7. The definition of core electrons is, electrons in their most inner shell, On the other hand valence electrons are electrons in the outermostshell. When looking at a periodic table you see that there is a total# of 5 valence electrons. In order to figure out the core number you subtract the total number of electrons(atomic #) - Valence # of electrons. I hope this helped :)
well core electrons is the number of total electrons minus valence electrons so.......Phosphorus has 18 electrons and 5 valence electrons so 18 - 5 = 13 so there are 13 core electrons
For a neutral (uncharged) atom, the total number of electrons is equal to the atomic number (number of protons). This would be the sum of the core electrons plus the valence electrons.
The energy of the valence electrons is greater then the energy of the core electrons.APEX
The energy of the valence electrons is greater than the energy of the core electrons.
The energy of the valence electrons is greater than the energy of the core electrons.

No, it has six electrons because its atomic number is 6. Atoms are neutral, so it would need six electrons to counteract with the charge of the six protons. 2 core electrons and 4 valence electrons.
2,8,18,7... 28 core electrons 7 valence electrons.
By finding the atomic number minus the group number
