Good Question
Valance electrons are simply the number of electrons in the outer shell of an atom. An easy way to figure this out is to look at the families (the vertical columns of the Periodic Table) and count over from left to right. The number in the ones place is the number of valance electrons that the element will have. The goal is usually to fill the number of valance electrons using the octet rule. The octet rule is filling it to its max so it becomes stable the number is usually eight. There are some exceptions such as helium which has two.

How may electrons are in a chlorine atom?
Chlorine has 17 electrons. 7 of its electrons are valence electrons.
Which electrons are the valence electrons of an atom?

How many core electrons does a metalloid with 4 electrons have?
A metalloid with 4 electrons, such as silicon, has 2 core electrons. In the case of silicon, the electron configuration is 1s² 2s² 2p², where the 1s² electrons are the core electrons, while the 2s² and 2p² electrons are considered valence electrons. Thus, it has 2 core electrons and 4 total electrons.
What are the valencyelectrons or valanced electrons and what is their location in an atom?
Valence Electrons are the outermost electrons in an element and they are used for bonding with other elements.
What do snails need to survive?
water if they are lake snails use lake water, they also need a closed environment and rocks or sand but i would use rocks. They will also need plants and algae or frozen foods for their valanced diet!!!!!!!!!!!GOSH!!!!!!!!
Why is diamond a bad conductor of electricity?
All four valanced electron of each carbon atom involves in formation of covalent bond living no free electron to conduct electricity under influnce of electric field thats why diamond is bad conductor of heat and electricity
