How many valence electron are in potassium?
Just 1 valence electron in K (number 19, period IV, group 1)(Its electron configuration is 4s1, in which 4:means shell number 4, s: means s-orbital, 1: means 1 electron)4s1your answer is one valence electron
What is the valence electron configuration for the phosphorus atom?
The valence electrons are the outermost (highest energy) s and p sublevels. There are 5 valence electrons in a phosphorus atom, and it is in period 3, so its valence electron configuration is 3s23p3.
In ionic bonding the metal donates its valence electron to the?
The metal gives its electron(s) to a nonmetal.
An electron in the outermost energy level of an atom is a?
The outermost electrons are called VALENCE electrons.
What is the number of valence electrons for the elements in group 1?
The elements in Group 1 have one valence electron in their outermost s orbital.

Which electron orbit is considered higher the valence shell or the s-orbital?
Usually the valence shell - but that can be the S-orbital too.

An electron in the outermost energy level of an atom is a?
The outermost electrons are called VALENCE electrons.
What is the number of valence electrons for the elements in group 1?
The elements in Group 1 have one valence electron in their outermost s orbital.
What are the electrons in the outer shell of an atom called?
valence electrons
What parts of the atom will touch first when to atoms meet and react?
The valence electron. (The outermost electron) help it help s:))))
Are valence electrons located in the electron cloud?
The outermost shell of an electron is called the valence shell. This shell may or may not have electrons.The valence shell is a part of the electron cloud.So your answer isYes, the valence electrons are located in the electron cloud.
The elements in group 7A have one valence electron true or false?
A valence electron, or valence electrons, are found in all of the elements. A valence electron is an electron located on the out most shell of an element (the valence shell). Most elements will have more than one valence electron. Oxygen, or O, has six valence electrons because its outer shell consists of six electrons.
Is a valence electron the same thing as a electron?
Yes, but valence electrons are always in the outer electron shell of an atom.
How many valence electrons does the element cesium have?
A cesium atom has 1 valence electron. It is an alkali metal, and all alkali metals have 1 valence electron. The electron configuration for cesium is (Rn)7s1. The single electron in the 7s sublevel is its valence electron.
