There are many ways to test and identify metal. The easiest way is observing its color. Also how reflective it is. Other ways would be boiling point, melting point, density, or conductivity of the metal.
Hope This Helps and God Bless!

Answer: Be= 2, C =4, Li = 1 and B=3
Explanation:
The valence shell can be define as the outermost shell of an atom that contains the valence electrons.
Beryllium (Be), electronic configuration; 1s2 2s2, = 2 electrons in its valence shell.
Carbon (C), electronic configuration; 1s2 2s2 2p2, = 4 electrons in its valence shell.
Lithium (Li), electronic configuration; 1s2 2s1 = 1 electron in its valence shell.
Boron (B) , electronic configuration; 1s2 2s2 2p1 = 3 electron in its valence shell.
