What else can I help you with?
What characteristic of an element determines how its atoms can bonds with other?
The number of valence shell electrons will generally determine the bonding characteristics of the element in question.
What is the valence of the element helium?
The valence of the element helium is 0.
Do elements in each group have similar characteristics?
Yes. Every element in a group has the same number of valence electrons.
What is the number of valence electrons (number in the outer most energy level)?
The valence electrons are the outer most electrons and the principal energy level in which they belong will vary for element to element and generally corresponds to the period number in which the element is present
Element 3 lithium has one valence electron and element 4 beryllium has two valence electrons Element 5 boron has how many valence electrons?
Boron has 3 valence electrons.Boron has 3 valence electrons.
What element has 6 valence electrons?
The element with 6 valence electrons is carbon.
How many valence electrons should an element to react with a element with 7 valence electrons?
one valence electron
Electrons that are held most loosely in an atom are called what?
The electrons in the valence band, this can be 1 to 8 electrons (in the s and p orbitals of the outer shell) depending on the element.
What can you tell about the properties of this element?
The periodic table can be used to quickly determine characteristics (number of valence electrons for example) of an element.
When determining an elements chemical properties the most important subatomic particle to look at its what?
When determining an element's chemical properties, the most important subatomic particle to consider is the electron. Electrons, particularly those in the outermost energy level or valence shell, dictate how an element interacts with others, influencing its reactivity, bonding behavior, and overall chemical behavior. The arrangement and number of these valence electrons largely determine an element's position in the periodic table and its chemical characteristics.
Is the element reactive or satble how do you know?
If the element has a full valence shell, such as the noble gases, then it is unreactive. It the element is missing few valence electrons of has few valence electrons, then the element is very reactive, such as the sodium.
What type of properties do valence elcectrons determine for an element?
Valence electrons determine the reactivity of the element.
