What information does the column number provide on the periodic table?

For main group elements the column number is a concrete indication of then number of valence electrons (and therefore oxidation number). And since it tells you the number of valence electrons you can get a substantially reliable idea of how reactive the element is


What part of that atom is involved in bonding?

The outer or valence electrons are the ones involved in bonding.Valence electrons


Does the valence shell of electrons determine how one atom bonds to another atom to make a molecule?

No, valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost energy level of an atom. A molecule is the smallest physical unit of an element or compound, consisting of one or more like atoms in an element and two or more different atoms in a compound.


What part of the atom determines how it will react with other atoms?

These particles are the electrons.


What makes atoms have a stable electron configuration?

In order for an atom to be chemically stable it must have 8 valence electrons.


What can you predict about an element from its position on the periodic table?

Its position predicts several useful characteristics: 1. The no. of valence electrons/the type of valence orbitals 2. The nature of element 3. Other Elements having similar chemistry 4. rough idea of the ionization enthalpy, electronegativity, and other parameters and many more things


A theory that predicts some molecular shapes based on the idea that pairs of valence electrons surrounding an atom repel each other?

VESPR theory :)


What is VSEPR theory used for?

Valence shell electron pair repulsion theory, otherwise known as VSEPR theory, is used to predict the geometry of molecules. This is based on the number of electron pairs surrounding their central atoms. This is based on the idea that valence electron pairs surrounding and Adam generally repel each other, so their arrangement is based on the minimizing of said repulsion.


State two characteristics shared by elements of the same group in the periodic table?

They are all composed of the same elementary particles, i.e. all of them have protons and electrons (and all but one have neutrons). Also: - all of them have mass - all of them exist in space and time - all of them interact with other elements by means of electromagnetic forces and gravitational forces - all of them exist in more than one isotopic variety.


How many valence electrons does ICl4 have?

Valency of carbon is 4.Valency of chlorine is 1
