Barium has two valence electrons, as can be deduced from its placement in Group 2 of the modern Periodic Table.
Ba is a group 2 elements with 2 valence electrons. S is a group 16 element (or oxygen family) and has 6 valence electrons. Ba gives 2 of it's valence electrons to S giving both atoms an octet. They combine in an ionic compound in 1:1 proportions. The formula is BaS and it's called barium sulphate
5 valence electrons.
6 Valence Electrons
Helium has two valence electrons. It is the only noble gas not to have eight valence electrons. Helium has the electronic configuration 1s2.The Noble gases have eight valence electrons in their outer shell.
Fluorine is a halogen. All halogens have 7 valence electrons. There are thus 7 valence electrons for Fluorine, 2 in the 2s orbital, and 5 in the 2p orbitals.
There are 2 valence electrons in Barium.

Valence electrons are electrons that are on the outside "shell." In Group (column) 1, there is only one valence electrons for each element. In Group (column) 2, there are two valence electrons. Group 13: 3 valence electrons Group 14: 4 valence electrons Group 15: 5 valence electrons Group 16: 6 valence electrons Group 17: 7 valence electrons Group 18: 8 valence electrons There is no Group 19, so this list is done. For the metals, each element will need to be mapped out utilizing the Bohr Diagram design or something of the like as valence electrons are difficult to define due to the grouping on the periodic table. The most valence electrons that can be in an outer shell is eight. Barium (Ba) is in Group (column) 2, and thus has only two valence electrons.

Examples: Ca, Mg, Ba, Sr, Ra, etc.
The alkaline earth group has two valence electrons.
Valence electrons
the electrons in the outermost shell of an atom are considered to be the valence electrons.
