There are 2 electrons in the first valence shell ("orbital"). The first orbital is an "s" orbital. If the atom is neutral in charge and there is only 1 electron - you have Hydrogen. If the atom is neutral in charge and you have only 2 electrons - you have Helium. Since the outermost shell of electrons is full, considerable chemical stability is conferred to the Helium atom, thus it is a member of the "Noble Gases" - those that have full comlpements of electrons in their outer shells, the others being Neon, Argon, Krypton, Xenon, and Radon.
What else can I help you with?
Group 1a elements have how many electrons in their valence shells?
All these have one electron in their valence shell.
How many electron shells and how many valence electrons are in an atom of an element found in period 3 and group 16 of the periodic table?
This element is sulfur; the electron configuration of sulfur is [Ne]3s23p4. Sulfur has three electron shells cotaining 2, 8 and 6 electrons. The last six are valence electrons.
How can i look at the periodic table and tell how many valence electrons an element has?
The group of the element indicates the amount of valence electrons. For example, the alkali metals have one valence electron and is in group one whilst the halogens have seven valence electrons and are in group seven.
How many electrons are in the valence shell of francium?
Francium has one valence electron, its atomic no is 87 and it belong to Ist group of periodic table.
How many electrons does Ba has?
Valence electrons are electrons that are on the outside "shell." In Group (column) 1, there is only one valence electrons for each element. In Group (column) 2, there are two valence electrons. Group 13: 3 valence electrons Group 14: 4 valence electrons Group 15: 5 valence electrons Group 16: 6 valence electrons Group 17: 7 valence electrons Group 18: 8 valence electrons There is no Group 19, so this list is done. For the metals, each element will need to be mapped out utilizing the Bohr Diagram design or something of the like as valence electrons are difficult to define due to the grouping on the periodic table. The most valence electrons that can be in an outer shell is eight. Barium (Ba) is in Group (column) 2, and thus has only two valence electrons.
How many electrons would be in the valence shells of iodine and chlorine?
Both iodine and chlorine are halogens (group 17) and have 7 valence electrons.

How many valence are in chlourine?
A total of 7 valence electrons. If I remember correctly, the number of valence electrons of all group A elements are designated by their group number. Chlorine is in group VIIA, hence 7 valence electrons.

How many valence electrons in the chalcogens group?
The chalcogens group, also known as Group 16, has 6 valence electrons. This group includes elements like oxygen, sulfur, selenium, and tellurium. Valence electrons are the outermost electrons in an atom's electron cloud and are involved in chemical bonding.

How do I find the valence electrons in an atom?
To find the valence electrons in an atom, look at the group number on the periodic table. The group number tells you how many valence electrons an atom has. For example, elements in group 1 have 1 valence electron, elements in group 2 have 2 valence electrons, and so on.
