In s and p blocks the number of valence electrons in an element is the same number of the group which that element belongs to. Hope this helps....
valence electrons are electrons at the outermost shell as we all know, group in PE can be determined by looking at the valence electron thus if it is in group 1..then the valence electron is 1
For the group 1 and 2 elements, the group number is the number of valence electrons. For groups 13 - 18, subtract 10 from the group number to get the number of valence electrons.
Groups on the periodic table are numbered from 1 to 18, with the group number corresponding to the number of valence electrons in the elements of that group. Group 1 elements have 1 valence electron, group 2 elements have 2 valence electrons, and so on. Groups 1, 2, and 13-18 are known as the main group elements.
The total number of electrons in any atom is the same as the atomic number. The number of valence electrons in an atom in columns 13 - 18 is the second digit of the column number.

To find the number of valence electrons for an element in the representative groups (Group 1, 2, 13-18), you can look at the group number. Elements in Group 1 have 1 valence electron, Group 2 have 2 valence electrons, Group 13 have 3 valence electrons, and so on up to Group 18 which have 8 valence electrons. The group number gives you the number of valence electrons for elements in the representative groups.
For groups 1-2 the number of valence electrons is equal to the number of the group.For groups 13-18 the number of valence electrons is equal to the number of the group, but with numbering starting up from 3 (13), 4 (14) , etc. (transition metals excluded).

For the group 1 and 2 elements, the group number is the number of valence electrons. For groups 13 - 18, subtract 10 from the group number to get the number of valence electrons.
This is the number of valence electrons.
Groups on the periodic table are numbered from 1 to 18, with the group number corresponding to the number of valence electrons in the elements of that group. Group 1 elements have 1 valence electron, group 2 elements have 2 valence electrons, and so on. Groups 1, 2, and 13-18 are known as the main group elements.
For Groups 1 and 2 the valence number is the group number, for groups 13-18 it is the last digit of the group number so oxygen (group 16) would have 6 valence electrons. For all the other groups ( group 3-12, the transition metals ) they are variable.
The total number of electrons in any atom is the same as the atomic number. The number of valence electrons in an atom in columns 13 - 18 is the second digit of the column number.

atoms in a group have the same number of valence electrons
The number of valence electrons in an atom determines its ability to form ions. Atoms that have few valence electrons tend to lose them to form positive ions, while atoms with many valence electrons tend to gain electrons to form negative ions. The ionic charge of an ion is related to the number of electrons gained or lost during the formation of the ion.
The number of Valence electrons in the groups 3 to 12 is variable, and depends on the element that it is being bonded with.For example:If Iron (Fe) is going to form a compound with Sodium (Na), the Fe will act as though it has 7 valence electrons (i.e. it is willing two accept the one Na Valence electron).
