Nonmetals attract electrons.
highly mobile electrons in the valence shell
Zinc has two valence electrons.
Calcium has a total of two valence electrons.
An oxygen atom has two valence electrons.
The alkaline earth metals are those in the same group as calcium; they have two valence electrons.
Two valence electrons.

There are 2 valence electrons in Barium.
they are making metal bonds. that is the purpose.
Beryllium has two valence electrons.

2 valence electrons are in iridium because iridium is a transition metal. Most transitions metal would have 2 valence electrons because the group before the transition metals are the alkaline-earth metals which contains 2 valence electrons in that group making the transition metals have 2 valence electrons.
Helium has two valence electrons. It is the only noble gas not to have eight valence electrons. Helium has the electronic configuration 1s2.The Noble gases have eight valence electrons in their outer shell.
Magnesium, an alkaline earth metal, has two valance electrons. The symbol of magnesium is, Mg ----
In a metal the valence electrons delocalize into the conduction band, becoming an "electron gas" that fills the metal's bulk volume.In covalent bonds the valence electrons are shared between local pairs of atoms.In ionic bonds the valence electrons leave the "metal" and move to the "nonmetal" creating a pair of separate oppositely charged ions.In resonance bonds the valence electrons oscillate between being shared between two nearby local pairs of atoms.etc.To summarize in metals the valence electrons become delocalized, in other bonds the valence electrons stay local.
