Potassium has 1 valence electron.
six valence electrons
Take carbon as an example.Carbon, indicated by it's atomic number, has 6 electrons. The number at the top of carbon's group is the number of valance electrons. Carbon has 4 valance elections.6 total electrons - 4 valance electrons= 2 core electrons in carbon=====================(try another element yourself to see this process )
6 valence electrons 1s2 2s2 2p4 These 6 valence electrons are in the outer shell.
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.
I might be wrong but: I know that beryllium has two electrons total and the first ring can only fit two electrons so the number of valance electrons is most likely two. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
By looking at the group number you can tell how many valance electrons there are ex: Group 1= 1 valance electrons Group 2-12= 2 valance electrons Group 13= 3 valance electrons Group 14= 4 valance electrons Group 15= 5 valance electrons Group 16= 6 valance electrons Group 17= 7 valance electrons Group 18= 8 valance electrons

There are none.
No. Atomic number = number of protons
