Any of the elements in group 6A would qualify eg Oxygen (O), sulfur (S) etc.. Theirs many answers on the web that tell you diferently but this is correct as it came streight out of my chemistry book! Goodluck!!

Sulfur contains how many valence electrons?

Group 16 (VIB or VIA) elements have six valence electrons.


How many valence electrons does the sulfur atom contain?

Group 16 (VIB or VIA) elements have six valence electrons.


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.


Which group of elements forms bonds by using their six valence electrons?

The group 16 elements have 6 valence electrons. However, they generally only have two unpaired electrons available for bonding.


What elements on the periodic table has six valence electrons?

Oxygen, with a electron number of 8 there are two electrons on the first orbit ring and six an the outer ring(shell) those are the valence electrons


Which atoms have six valence electrons in their valence shell?

The atoms with six valence electrons are the elements of group sixteen. This list includes O, S, Te, Se, and Po. If you would like to answer this yourself, just remember that the last digit of the group number is typically the number of valence electrons that you will have. The exceptions of course are the transitional metals from group 3 to 12 and the lanthanides and actinides like uranium and plutonium. These have 2 valence electrons.


What elements have six valence electrons?

Elements in group 16 of the periodic table, also known as the oxygen group, have six valence electrons. This group includes elements such as oxygen, sulfur, and selenium. These elements typically form -2 ions in chemical reactions.


What is the number of valence electrons for group 2 elements?

Group 2 metals have 2 valence electrons. In fact, the number of valence electrons of elements can be deduced from the group number (e.g. group VII elements have 7 valence electrons).


How many valence electrons do transitions elements have?

How many valence electrons do transition elements have?


How many valence electrons does an atom?

An atom can have anywhere from 1 to 8 valence electrons. The number of valence electrons. Elements in the first column of the Periodic Table have one electron, those in the second have two. Those in the large block ins the middle (the transition elements, the lanthanides, and the actinides are generally considered to have two valence electron , though they have a property called variable valence. The trend of valence electrons continues in the block on the left side (the last six columns). The first column in this block has six valence electrons, and so forth until the last column in which the elements have eight valance electrons, except for helium which has two.


Which group of the periodic table is represented by the electrondot symbol x 6?

These would be the elements in group 16. The elements in group 16 have six valence electrons. Those valence electrons are represented in a Lewis diagram by surrounding them with six dots. When drawing a diagram for an element with six valence electrons, there should be two pairs of dots (four total), and two separate dots.


What are the names of the six oxygen valence electrons?

The names of the six oxygen valence electrons are 2s and 2p electrons.
