One way to show the number of valence electrons an atom has is through its electron configuration, specifically by focusing on the outermost shell of electrons. Additionally, the Periodic Table can be used, as elements in the same group typically have the same number of valence electrons. For instance, Group 1 elements have one valence electron, while Group 18 elements have eight. Another method is using Lewis dot structures, which visually represent the valence electrons around an element's symbol.
they both show particles but an atomic number is the amount of protons in the nucleus and a dot diagram is to show the bonding of atoms with electrons. and does not show the amount of electrons those atoms have but the valence electrons each atom has
Electrons are placed on the rings (or energy levels) of an atom. The number of electrons in each ring is determined by the atom's atomic number and follows specific rules based on the electron configuration.
For bonding between atoms we usually show the dot-cross diagram representing the outer most electrons of bonded atoms.
This is the Lewis dot notation.
Four quantum numbers are used to describe electrons in atoms.

Valence electrons are those that are in the outermost shell of the atom.

The electrons in the outermost shell of an atom are called valence electrons. These electrons are involved in forming chemical bonds with other atoms to create molecules. The number of valence electrons influences the reactivity and chemical properties of an element.
