Answer:Use the K L M N shell orbit

Explanation: Valence electrons are those electrons on the outermost shell of an atomic nucleus.

The K L M N electron shell is named by a spectroscopist called Charles G. Barkla, who discovered the A X-rays ( high energy rays) and the B X-rays ( low energy rays), he later renamed the A X-rays K X-rays which is the Energy level orbit, and the B X-rays was also renamed to be the L M N and so on.

PLEASE SEE PICTURE ATTACHED

THE PICTURE SHOWS HOW TO DETERMINE VALENCE ELECTRON USING THE As AND B's WHICH ARE THE K L M N SHELL ORBIT, USING SILICON AS AN EXAMPLE.

The maximum number of electron in the K orbit is 2

The maximum number of electron in the L M N shell is 8

Therefore the number of electron found in the outermost shell becomes the number of Valence electron in that element.

(1) MO₂(s) + C(s) → M(s) + CO₂ (g), ΔG₁ = 288.9 kJ/mol
(2) C(s) + O₂(g) → CO₂(g), ΔG₂ = -394.4 kJ/mol
By adding both equations 1 + 2 we get the coupled reaction:
MO₂(s) + 2 C(s) + O₂(g) → M(s) + 2 CO₂(g)
ΔG⁰ = ΔG₁ + ΔG₂
= 288.9 + (-394.4) = -105.5 kJ/mol = -105500 J/mol
Temperature T = 25 + 273.15 = 298.15 K
Molar gas constant R = 8.314 J/mol.K
K = $e^{ \frac{-dG0}{RT} }$
= $e^{ \frac{105500}{8.314 x 298.15} }$
= 3.05 x 10¹⁸
