The maximum number of electrons that might be found in the valence shell is eight.
The number of valence electrons increases with increase in atomic number from the beginning to the end of period 2. The maximum number of valence electrons possible in any outermost shell is 8.
The maximum number of valence electrons will vary from element to element ranging from 1 to 8.
Since krypton is a noble gas in the group number 18, it has 8 valence electrons. Eight is the maximum number of valence electrons.
Iodine has 7 valence electrons. I- contains 8 valence electron.
The electrons on the outermost level are called Valence electrons. the usual maximum is 8.
valence electrons
Yes it does. Helium has 2 electrons in the s orbital. A s orbital can hold a maximum of two electrons.
The maximum number is 8 electrons in the second shell.
The maximum number of electrons that any atom can hold in its outer valence is 8. Oxygen has the electron configuration of 1s2 2s2 2p4, which means it can accept two more electrons.
The first layer has two, since the maximum amount of electrons you may have in layer one are two, after the first layer you may have a maximum of eight electrons per layer, so layer one has two, layer two has eight, and layer 3 has a maximum of 18. To find the maximum number of electrons each layer can have do the equation 2(n2) n=number of layers
Take the atomic number then subtract the amount of valence electrons. Example: Number of non valence (inner) electrons in Sulfur: 16 (atomic number) - 6 (valence electrons) = 10 (valence or inner electrons)
