It is B nevermind I thought it was c but it wasn't.
yo no ablo espanol pero si ablo English
It’s the third one because Cl has 17 protons bc of the numeric number and 18 electrons bc it’s always the opposite and 18 neutrons because you subtract 35-17=18
Answer:
6
Explanation:
This atom is sulfur (if the electrons are equal to the protons/not an ion). You can tell the number of valence electrons by looking at the individual shell. The first shell (1s) can only hold 2 electrons. The second shell (2s and 2p) can hold 8 electrons. The third shell (3s and 3p), which is the valence shell, only has 6 out of its possible 8 electrons, so this atom has 6 valence electrons.
