== == The valency of an element is the measure of electrons it needs or needs to loose to obtain a stable structure (a noble gas structure, such as helium, neon, argon ...) for example in NaCl, sodium has 11 electrons which means 1 valence electron, chlorine has 17 electrons which means it has -1 valence electrons; so sodium looses 1 electron and chlorine gains that electron so sodium ends up with 10 electrons (Neon's electron structure) and chlorine ends up with 18 electrons (Argon's electron structure) the number of outer electrons. Noble elements are the most stable elements (thats why they don't react well and stay alone, like helium) so all the other elements try to obtain the noble electron structure. Elements usually gain or loose 4 electrons.

What is valency of 17 element?
This is Cl, chlorine, with multiple valency values: -1, +1, +3, +5, +7
What is the formula for valency?
The valency of an element is determined by the number of electrons it gains, loses, or shares to achieve a stable electron configuration. It is typically the same as the number of electrons an element needs to gain or lose to achieve a full outer shell (octet). For example, elements in Group 1 have a valency of +1 because they lose one electron to achieve stability, while elements in Group 17 have a valency of -1 because they gain one electron to achieve stability.
How do you take out valency an element?
Group number 1 = Valency 1+group number 2 = valency 2+group number 3 = valency 3+group number 4 = valency 4+ and 4- (some cases) group number 5 = valency 3-group number 6 = valency 2-group number 7 = valency 1-group number 8 = valency 0For the transition elements they will either state Copper (III) Sulphate or it will be like Cu2(SO4)3You can find the valency by the base of sulphate and you know its positive because metals are always positive and are written in the left.Source: I am a GCE O Level Sciences Student (O2)
What elements in an element family have similar?
Valency
What is the valency of the last element in the 3rd group of modern periodic table?
The last element in the 3rd group of the modern periodic table is gallium, with the symbol Ga. Gallium has a valency of +3, meaning it tends to lose three electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration.
What is the valency of the smallest element?
the smallest element is hydrogen of which its valency is one.
How do you find valency?
The valency of an element measures its ability to combine with other elements. This valency is determined by the number of electrons in the outer shell of each atom of an element.
Which element has 4 and 6 valency?
Carbon has a valency of 4, while sulfur has a valency of 6.
What is the meaning of valency?
Valency (in chemistry) is the number of the valence bonds of a chemical element.
What is bivalent ions?
an element which has valency 2
What is the highest valency element?
The highest valency element is oxygen, with a valency of 2. The valency of an element represents the number of bonds it can form with other elements. Oxygen typically forms bonds by gaining two electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration.
What the valency of So2 and So3?
The valency of SO2 is 4, while the valency of SO3 is 6. The valency of an atom is the combining power of an element, which indicates the number of bonds it can form with other elements.
Radical - positive and negative radical in chemistry?
Valency is the number of hydrogen atoms that can combine with [or displace] one atom of the element [or radical] to form a compound. For example, one atom of hydrogen combines with one atom of chlorine to form hydrogen chloride [HCl]; so, the valency of chlorine [chloride] is one. Similarly, the valency of the nitrate radical [NO3] in the compound nitric acid [HNO3] is 1, and the valency of the sulfate radical in the compound sulfuric acid [H2SO4] is 2. For elements that do not combine with hydrogen, the valency is the combining power of the element with another element whose valency is known. Valency may also be defined as the number of electrons that an atom donates or accepts to form the duplet state (i.e., 2 electrons in outermost shell) or octet state (i.e., 8 electrons in outermost shell). The valency of an element [or radical] is always a whole number. Elements [or radicals] with valency one are monovalent, those with valency two are divalent, and those with valency three are trivalent
Which element has least valency?
The noble gases have the least valency which is zero. It is because thay have a complete shells.
How do you calculate the valency of an element from its electronic configuration?
To calculate the valency of an element from its electronic configuration, determine the number of electrons in the outermost shell. The valency is typically the number of electrons needed to complete the outermost shell to achieve a stable octet (eight electrons). For example, elements in group 1 have a valency of 1, while elements in group 17 have a valency of 7.
What is the valency of an element sodium chloride?
Sodium chloride is composed of sodium (Na) and chlorine (Cl). Sodium has a valency of +1, while chlorine has a valency of -1. In sodium chloride, sodium donates its electron to chlorine, forming an ionic bond with a valency of +1 for sodium and -1 for chlorine.
Can an element have more than one valency?
yes
