Electrons in the outermost orbitals of an atom. They determine the chemical reactivity of an atom and are the primary electrons that participate in chemical reactions.

What is the value of n for the valence shells of as?
The value of 'n' for the valence shells is the number of shells that specific atom has
How many valence shells does the element neon have?
Period number = no. of electron shells. Therefore neon has two shells.
Why are noble gases are non reactive?
They have filled valence shells. Atoms undergo chemical bonding in order to have filled valence shells by sharing electrons or transferring electrons. Because the noble gases already have filled valence shells, they have no need to react with other elements.
What are valence electrons and shells?
Valence electrons are the ones which participate in chemical reactions in some way, either by moving from one atom to another, or by being shared with another atom. They are found in the outer shell of an atom (there are usually inner shells with other electrons that are not valence electrons, although in the lightest elements, there are no inner shells and all electrons are valence electrons).
Does carbon have three electrons in its valence shells yes or no?
No. Carbon has 4 electrons in its outer shell (valence shell).
Do noble gases have valence shells?
Yes they have eight electrons in their valence shells. This is why they are not reactive. All elements have valence shells.
How many valence shells in radium?
Radium has seven electron shells; the valence of radium is 2+.
What is the value of n for the valence shells of as?
The value of 'n' for the valence shells is the number of shells that specific atom has

All these have one electron in their valence shell.
How many valence shells does an atom has?
The valence shell is the outermost shell...and an atom can only have one outer shell.

No. Carbon has 4 electrons in its outer shell (valence shell).
