They may be lost, gained, or shared.
Valence electrons are: In chemistry, those electrons found in orbits farthest from the nucleus of the atom. These electrons determine the way in which the atom will combine with other atoms, and thus determine its chemical properties.
I believe there is 8 electrons in the outer valence
Valence electrons are those that exist in the highest main energy level in the last shell of an atom.
In the outermost shell that has electrons in it, those are called the valence electrons. For example carbon has 6 electrons, but only 4 are valence electrons because there are 2 in the shell in between it and the center of the element and 4 on the outside shell.
ELEMENT
The outermost electrons in an atom that are responsible for all chemistry are known as valence electrons.
No such thing. Did you mean valence electrons? Those are the outermost electrons in an atom, and they are the ones that are used in a chemical reaction.

mostly all carbon compounds have covalent bonding since carbon can't donate it's valence shell electrons it can share those electrons
Valence electrons are those in the outermost shell of the atom.
Valence electrons are those that are in the outermost shell of the atom.
those elements are in the same 'family' or 'group'
Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost shell of an atom. The ones in the inner shell are known as core electrons.
The valence electrons are the outermost electrons, i.e. those that reside in the outermost energy level.
Those are called Valence Electrons.
Those electrons are the valence electrons. They are the electrons which mostly take part in exchange of electrons or sharing of electrons. Hence, valence shell electrons are a very important part of chemistry since all the reactions due to them only.
