How many valence electrons does 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p3 have? Answer: To find out valence electrons from 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p3,we will do the following steps: Step-1: We need to identify valence shell by the principal quantum number (n)of highest value. From 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p3 ,the highest value of n is 3. So, third shell is the valence shell and the electrons in 3rd shell is called valence electrons. Step-2: Now we need to add all the valence electrons. In 3rd shell,we are getting 3s2 3p3 . If I add all the valence electrons,we get 2 + 3 = 5 valence electrons in 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p3. From 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p3, we get totally 15 electrons.Among these 15 electrons, only 5 electrons are called valence electrons that are situated in the outermost shell ( 3s2 3p3). 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p3 is the el...
