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

Which number tells you the number of valence electrons?
The group numbers tell the number of valence electrons. Without looking on the group number you can also tell the number of valence electrons by looking at the highest energy level in the electronic configuration.
What do Valence Electrons determine?
The Group Number of the Element you're working on determines the number of Valence Electrons. Valence electrons are electrons in the outside energy level.
How many electrons are in the highest occupied energy level of oxygen?
Oxygen atoms have 6 electrons in the highest occupied energy level. They are two 2s electrons and four 2p electrons. All elements in Group 16 have 6 valence electrons. For Groups 13-18, subtract 10 from the group number and that gives you the number of valence electrons (the electrons in the highest energy s and p orbitals). The Group 1 elements have one valence electron and the Group 2 elements have two valence electrons. The transition metals can vary in the number of valence electrons. You can't necessarily go by group number for them.
The number of valence electrons for 1s22s22p4 is?
The electronic configuration tells that the element is Oxygen and has 6 electrons in valence shell because there are 6 electrons in the 2nd energy level.
The ability of atoms to combine with other atoms is determined by?
The number of electrons of both atoms and its valence number.
Which number tells you the number of valence electrons?
The group numbers tell the number of valence electrons. Without looking on the group number you can also tell the number of valence electrons by looking at the highest energy level in the electronic configuration.
What is the number of protons in the nucleus or the number the electrons in the energy levels called?
valence electrons
What do Valence Electrons determine?
The Group Number of the Element you're working on determines the number of Valence Electrons. Valence electrons are electrons in the outside energy level.
How can period number related to the location of valence electrons?
The period number is the same as the energy level containing the valence electrons. For example, in period 4, the valence electrons are the 4s and 4p electrons.
What do you call the electrons in the outermost energy level?
Electrons in the outermost energy level are called valence electrons. The number of valence electrons on an atom largely determine its behavior and characteristics.
How does the number of electrons in energy levels affect bond formation?
Chemical bonding is occurred from the participation of valence electrons. Valence electrons are located in the topmost energy level of an atom.
Electrons are those found in the outermost energy level of an atom?
Electrons are those found in the outermost energy level of an atom?They are called valence electrons.
Are periods valence electrons or electron shell?
The period tells you the valence ELECTRON SHELL (energy level). The group tells you the 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
What do the members of a period have in common in the outermost energy level that or their valence electrons?
They are in common because the number of valence electrons stay the same
How many electrons are in the highest occupied energy level of oxygen?
Oxygen atoms have 6 electrons in the highest occupied energy level. They are two 2s electrons and four 2p electrons. All elements in Group 16 have 6 valence electrons. For Groups 13-18, subtract 10 from the group number and that gives you the number of valence electrons (the electrons in the highest energy s and p orbitals). The Group 1 elements have one valence electron and the Group 2 elements have two valence electrons. The transition metals can vary in the number of valence electrons. You can't necessarily go by group number for them.
What terms is used to the electrons in outermost shell or energy level?
Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost shell. They are the electrons available for bonding and generally determine the number of bonds an atom can make
