Q

How do you determine the number of valence electrons an element can have?

A

The number of valence electrons of an element can be seen by counting the group number of the element in the periodic table from left to right. (Excluding transition metals)

(Also except helium, which has 2 valence electrons.)

Q

When doing the LEDS of an element, you should put one on all sides first before doubling the amount. True or False?

A

True

17
Q

Is the ability of an atom to ACCEPT one or more electrons.

A

Electron Affinity

18
Q

Is the ability of an atom to ATTRACT electrons.

A

Electronegativity

19
Q

Both Electron Affinity and Electronegativity increase left then going down in the periodic table. True or False?

A

False. Both increase right then going up.

20
