antimony has 5 valence electrons
it needs 5
Based on the octet rule, bromine requires exactly one electron to fill its valence shell.
The atomic number of carbon is 6. 6 protons, 6 electrons. Two in the first shell and 4 on the second shell leaving 4 spaces open, making the second shell the valence shell and the 4 spaces open the valence- valence is the bonding capacity, in other words the electrons needed to fill the second shell. First shell max is 2 electrons Seccond shell max is 8 electrons
Group 15
It depends, most atoms need 8 total valence electrons in their outer shell (some need 2). So subtract the number they have (determined by the group that the element is in) from 8 and that is how many they need to fill their outer shell!
Whenever the outside shell of the atom, or valence shell, is completely full with electrons. Ex: The noble gases are lucky enough to start out stable because they fill their outer shells.
Two electrons will fill a hydrogen's outer, or valence, shell.
Hydrogen has one electron and needs one more. Helium has two electrons and has filled shell. Carbon needs four more electrons to fill the valence shell Oxygen needs two more electrons to fill the valence shell
Carbon has four valence electrons, so it will need four more electrons to fill its outer shell.
Based on the octet rule, bromine requires exactly one electron to fill its valence shell.
Valence electrons are the amount of electrons in the outermost electron shell. 8 valence electrons fill the outer shell making it completely stable.
Beryllium will lose 2 electrons to satisfy the octet rule (to fill its outer shell).
It will lose 2 electrons.
Carbon has four valence electrons, so it will need four more electrons to fill its outer shell.
When these elements have five electrons on the outermost shell of electrons.
The atomic number of carbon is 6. 6 protons, 6 electrons. Two in the first shell and 4 on the second shell leaving 4 spaces open, making the second shell the valence shell and the 4 spaces open the valence- valence is the bonding capacity, in other words the electrons needed to fill the second shell.
