Section 16-1 continued VALENCE ELECTRONS Practice. Periods. Each row is called a “period”. The elements in each period have the same number of electron shells. 1 st Period = 1 Shell. 2 nd Period = 2 Shells. 3 rd Period = 3 Shells. 4 th Period = 4 Shells. www.chem4kids.com. Groups.

Periods • Each row is called a “period” • The elements in each period have the same number of electron shells 1st Period = 1 Shell 2nd Period = 2 Shells 3rd Period = 3 Shells 4th Period = 4 Shells www.chem4kids.com
Groups • Each element in a group has the same number of “valence electrons” Group 8 = 8 electrons Group 1 = 1 electron Group 2 = 2 electrons 3,4,5,6,7 Except He, it has 2 electrons
Transition Metals • Transition Metals have slightly different rules for shells and valence electrons. • This is something you will learn about in High School Chemistry. www.chem4kids.com
Determine the number of shells and the number of valence electrons for: Carbon - C 2nd Period = 2 shells 4th Group = 4 valence electrons
Determine the number of shells and the number of valence electrons for: Sodium - Na 3rd Period = 3 shells 1st Group = 1 valence electron www.chem4kids.com

4 Be 9.012 PRACTICE? Name the element.__________ Number of protons?____ Average number of neutrons? ____ Number of shells ?____ Number of total electrons?____ Valence electrons ?_____
4 Be 9.012 Answer? Name the element. Beryllium Number of protons? 4 p+ Number of neutrons? 5 n Number of shells ? 2 (2nd period) Number of total electrons? 4 e- Valence electrons ? 2ve- (2nd group)
16 S 32.096 PRACTICE? Name the element.__________ Number of protons?____ Average number of neutrons? ____ Number of shells ?____ Number of total electrons?____ Valence electrons ?_____
16 S 32.096 Answer? Name the element. Sulfur Number of protons? 16 p+ Number of neutrons? 16 n Number of shells ? 3 (3rd period) Number of total electrons? 16 e- Valence electrons ? 6ve- (6th group)
2 He 4.003 PRACTICE? Name the element.__________ Number of protons?____ Average number of neutrons? ____ Number of shells ?____ Number of total electrons?____ Valence electrons ?_____
2 He 4.003 Answer? • Helium is the exception in Group 8. • Since it has just one shell, that shell can only fit 2 electrons instead of 8. • It is in this group because all the elements have a full outer shell. Name the element. Helium Number of protons? 2 p+ Number of neutrons? 2 n Number of shells ? 1 (1st period) Number of total electrons? 2 e- Valence electrons ? 2ve- (8th group - why?)
