How many valence electrons does HBr have?

Hydrogen has 1 valence electron. Bromine has 7 valence electrons. When hydrogen and bromine react, the bromine atom 'steals' the hydrogen atom's only electron. The hydrogen atom then has no electrons and the bromine atom has 8 valence electrons. The two atoms are now ions because their number of protons does not equal their number of electrons. The bromine atom is now a bromide anion and the hydrogen atom is now a hydrogen cation (a proton). The two ions remain together, ionicly bonded and together are called hydrogen bromide.


Hydrogen has how many valence electrons?

One. A hydrogen atom contains only one electron, and it is a valence electron.


How many valence electrons does CH3CO-OH have?

Through covalent bonding, the nitrogen atom will have 8 valence electrons, the hydrogen atoms will each have 2 valence electrons, and the chlorine atom will have 8 valence electrons.


How many valence electrons are in one neutral atom of hydrogen?

How many electrons does each hydrogen atom have in its valence shell?

Hydrogen doesn't really have a valence shell. It has one electron only.


How many valence electrons in H2 atom?

H2 is not an atom, it is a diatomic molecule. Each hydrogen atom has 1 valence electron. When two hydrogen atoms covalently bond to form an H2 molecule, there are two valence electrons being shared by the two atoms.


How many electrons that a hydrogen atom shares?

Hydrogen atoms have one valence electron which is also the only electron they have.


What aspects of an atom determine how an atom will bond to another atom?

the outermost electrons of an atom. these are called valence electrons. atoms are also grouped in the periodic table based on their valence electrons. to complete a full outermost shell there must be 8 electrons. hydrogen has 1 valence electron. and oxygen has 7. they are able to bond together because of how many valence electrons they have.


How many valence electrons are in an atom of magnesuim?

There are 2 valence electrons in an atom of magnesium. There are 5 valence electrons that are in an atom of phosphorus. There are 4 valence electrons that are in a silicon atom.
