Answer:

Valence electrons

Explanation:

Valence electron is the number of electrons in the outermost shell of an atom. Valance electrons are equal to the group number of the elements in the periodic table. For example, halogens are located in group 7 of the periodic table, and they have 7 valence electrons. Also alkali metals located in group 1 have 1 valence electron. In the formation of an ionic bond valence electrons are either lost or gained, and in covalent bonds valence electrons are shared.

Is the following true or false every element in the periodic table follows the aufbau principle
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

It is true that every element in the periodic table follows the Aufbau's principle.

The principle states that "the sublevels with lower energies are filled up before those with higher energies".

  • Sublevels do not fill up in numerical order.
  • This is true when writing the electronic configuration of all atoms on the periodic table.
