History

slega [8]3 years ago

valence electrons are electrons found in the outer shell of an atom. these are electrons that participate in CHEMICAL BONDING. an atom will either give up its valence electrons, gain valence electrons from another atom, or share valence electrons with another atom.

these are the only types of electrons that participate in chemical bonding - since they live in the outer most shell of an electron. no other electrons in an atom can bond. that's why these electrons have their own name.

an atom will do whatever it can to reach its full octet of valence electrons. that that means is that an atom is most stable when it has 8 electrons in its outer shell (it's the most stable and strong that way); hence the name OCTET.

i hope this helps!

Answer:

A valence electron is an outer shell electron that is associated with an atom, and that can participate in the formation of a chemical bond if the outer shell is not closed; in a single covalent bond, both atoms in the bond contribute one valence electron in order to form a shared pair. For neutral atoms, the number of valence electrons is equal to the atom's main group number.

BabaBlast [244]

France

France established colonies in the middle of North America from what is now Louisiana, north along the Mississippi, east to the Appalachian Mountains, and west to the Rocky Mountains. In addition they had the colony of Quebec in Canada.

The French set up small settlements through their vast colonial lands. They brought fur traders, trappers, missionaries, and men to farm food. The settlements included a church and some buildings for trade and housings. The French were more nomadic in their colonies because they were hunting animals for fur. They also created more friendly relations with the American Indian tribes. These alliances helped France to become successful fur traders and protect their lands from enemy tribes and British settlers.
