How many valence electrons are available for bonding in bromine (Br)?

Bromine has 7 valence electrons available for bonding.


How do you use te periodic table to identify the number of electrons available for bonding?

Valence electrons describe the number of available electrons for bonding. The group number describes outermost electron. The elements in same group has same valence electrons.The number of electrons available for bonding are the valence electrons. In an element, the group number is equal to the number of valence electrons. So the number of electrons available for bonding can be identified by the group number.


Which element has the same number of electrons available for bonding as magnesium?

Calcium has the same number of electrons available for bonding as magnesium. Both elements have 2 electrons available for bonding in the outer shell.


How many electrons are available in Nitrogen for covalent bonding?

Nitrogen has 5 electrons available for covalent bonding. It has 5 electrons in its outer shell, meaning it can form stable covalent bonds by sharing these electrons with other atoms.


How do you use periodic table to know the numbers of electrons available for bonding?

All of the elements, apart from the transition metals in the middle, are divided into groups. Group 1 elements have 1 electron in their outer shell, and this is the electron used in bonding. Group 2 have 2 electrons, Group 3 elements have 3, and so on. Group 8 elements have a full outer shell, so they generally don't react.
