Question

what is the significance of Valence Electrons

Answer 1

Heyya mate!!!!!

Here is ur answer...⬇️⬇️

Valence electrons are those which are found in the outermost shell of the atom of any element. The balance electrons decide whether the element is a metal or non metal. If there are 1,2,3 electrons in the valence shell, it is a metal. If there are 5,6,7 electrons they are non metals. Metals give out valence electrons and form cations . Non metals take electrons and form anions. Elements having 8 electrons in the outermost shell are inert gases.

Hope it helps u....❤❤❤

Answer 2

When two atoms approach each other and react with each other, it is their outer shells that come into contact first, and it is therefore the electrons in their outer shells that are normally involved in any chemical reaction.Valence electrons are electrons usually located in the outermost electron shell of an element. Of course, they can also be in an inner shell, in a transition metal. They take a major role in chemistry for they participate in the formation of a chemical bond
