warning

"Electrons within this shell, known as valence electrons, primarily dictate an atom’s chemical behaviour. These electrons bond with other atoms, forming covalent or ionic bonds that determine molecular structures and interactions."

Litotes

warning

"A valence shell may not have any more than eight electrons. Metals tend to have between 1 and 3 valence electrons and one of these is easily detached from the atom and is described as being 'free'. This accounts for their good electrical and thermal conductivity."
