The model that shows only valence electrons is the Lewis dot structure, also known as the Lewis electron dot diagram. This representation uses dots to depict the valence electrons of an atom, focusing on the electrons involved in chemical bonding. Lewis structures help visualize how atoms bond and interact in molecules, emphasizing the significance of valence electrons in chemical reactions.
VSEPR only shows the geometric shape of the element
In Niels Bohr's model of the atom, electrons move in specific orbits or energy levels around the nucleus, much like planets orbiting the sun. These orbits are quantized, meaning electrons can only exist in certain allowed energy states.
Helium is the only noble gas that doesn't have 8 valence electrons. It only has 2.
Helium is the noble gas with only 2 valence electrons
Francium has only one valence electrons.

VSEPR only shows the geometric shape of the element
Because they are the only ones involved in bonding. For example, when an forming an ionic compound one atom loses its valence electrons and one gains electrons to make its valence electron shell complete.

The Lewis model focuses on the bonding and non-bonding electron pairs around an atom to predict molecular structure and bonding, using Lewis structures. The valence-shell electron pair repulsion (VSEPR) model takes into account the arrangement of electron pairs around a central atom to predict the shape of a molecule, based on the principle that electron pairs repel each other and will arrange themselves to minimize repulsion.
Only chemical elements have a valence.
There are ONLY 2 valence electrons in Co, valence electrons come only from the s orbital and the p orbital, giving only 2 for Cobalt.
No, valence and oxidation number are not the same. Valence refers to the combining capacity of an atom based on its outer shell electrons, while oxidation number indicates the apparent charge of an atom in a compound or ion.
The book only shows 12 and 20 gauge.
