The element showing valency 4 will have 2 electrons in k shell and 4 electrons in L shell. That means we get total 2+4=6 electrons altogether.
We know no. Of electrons = The atomic number of the element.
So the element having atomic number 6 is carbon dioxide (CO2).
Similarly
Element having valency as 6 will have 2 electrons in k shell and 6 electrons in L shell which gives us 2+6=8 electrons altogether.
We know no. of electrons = atomic no. of an element.
So element having atomic no. 8 is oxygen (O2) .
Hope it helps.....
