How to determine how many valence electrons an element has?

Chemistry

Usually (ignoring transition metals, as they kinda get trickier), the element's valency can be found out by its group (column) number. Usually, we ignore the transition metal block while counting these columns, so Aluminium is in group 3, for example. Since Aluminium is in group 3, it has 3 valence electrons.

In the following chemical reaction, which compound is a precipitate? NaCl(aq) + AgNO3(aq)NaNO3(aq) + AgCI (s)
hjlf
The answer is:  [D]:  " AgCl " .
_________________________________________________________ 

Explanation:

_________________________________________________________

Given the chemical reaction:
_________________________________________________________
  
       NaCl (aq) + AgNO₃ (aq) <span>→ </span> NaNO₃ (aq) + AgCl (s)   ;
_________________________________________________________

The "reactants" , which are on the "left-hand side" of the chemical equation, are:

"NaCl" (in aqueous solution);  and "AgNO₃" (in aqueous solution).

The "products", which are on the "right-hand side" of the chemical equation, are: 

"NaNO₃" (in aqueous solution); and:  "AgCl" (as a "solid").

The "AgCl" (as a "product"—which is a "solid"—would be the "precipitate" ; 
__________________________________________________________

   →  which is:  Answer choice:  [D]:  " AgCl " .
