The elements in<span> groups 1a through 7a are called d. representative elements. The periodic table is organized according to increasing order of the atomic number of the elements. Groups have similar properties while the period of the elements determines the valence electrons in the outer shells.</span>
The answer would be C. Hope this helps
The noble gases AKA the column with full outermost valence shells. (Group 18)
Answer:
8 electrons
Explanation:
Magnesium is present on group 2.
It has 2 valence electrons.
Electronic configuration of magnesium:
Mg₁₂ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s²
1st energy level contain 2 electrons.(1s²)
2nd energy level contain 8 electrons. (2s² 2p⁶)
3rd energy level contain 2 electrons. (3s²)
3rs energy level of magnesium is called valence shell. It contain two valance electrons. Magnesium can easily donate its two valance electrons and get stable electronic configuration.
It react with halogens and form salt. For example,
Mg + Cl₂ → MgCl₂
