In covalent bonding the valence electrons are shared across the orbitals, in ionic bonding the electrons move from one atom's orbital to another. In metallic bonding the valence electrons are delocalised and free to move within the lattice.
Oh, dude, stable atoms typically have 8 valence electrons because they want to be all balanced and happy. It's like they're throwing a party and they need 8 cool electrons to join in on the fun. So yeah, 8 valence electrons is the magic number for stable atoms.
The most reactive elements have either 1 valence electron or 7 valence electrons
When atoms share electrons as opposed to transferring them, the atoms are covalently bonded.
The importance of valence electrons is that atoms in the same group ("groups" in the periodic table are the vertical columns- for example, nickel and platinum are in the tenth column; therefore, in the same group). Atoms of elements in the same group have the same number of valence electrons, so they have similar properties. Hope that helped with your homework! ;D
A valence electron, also known as valence orbital, is basically composed of electron and atoms that can make a chemical bond. Valence electrons identify other elementÕs chemical properties to determine if the element may bond with other elements.
They Share Electrons

The bond formed when two atoms have a give-take relationship in relation to electrons is called ionic bonding. This will mostly happens so that atoms can gain stability.
They are shared by the valence shells of the atoms involved in the bond.

valence electrons
Oxygen atoms have 6 valence electrons, while sulfur atoms have 6 valence electrons as well.
