Chemistry
1 answer:
Scilla [17]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The answer to your question is: 3

Explanation:

If an atom has 5 electrons, 5 neutrons and 5 protons, it means that the element is Boron. Boron is situated in the third group A, that means that is has 3 elements in its outermost shell.

Also, if we do the electronic configuration:

                                                                         1s² 2s²2p¹

If we count the number of electron in the second level of energy, the result will be:    2 in s and 1 in p  = 3. Those are the valence electrons.

How many electrons will metals generally have in their outer shell
Goshia [24]

Answer:

1 - 3

Explanation:

- Look to see where metals are on the periodic table then look at what group they are in. The group tells you the number of valence electrons. Ex. 1A has one valence electron.

- Hope this helped! If you need a further explanation please let me know.
