Periodic table with valence electrons is shown in the above image.
Points to remember:
- Valence electrons are the electrons present in the outermost shell of an atom.
- For main group elements (i.e s-block and p-block elements), the valence electrons are the electrons present in the outermost orbit.
- For most of the transition elements and inner transition elements, the valence electrons are the electrons present in the shells outside the noble gas core.
