In the context of sodium, what happens to the valence energy level when an electron is transferred to chlorine?

• It gains more electrons

• It remains the same

• It empties out

• It becomes the innermost level

Why is the outermost ring no longer considered the valence level after the electron transfer?

• Because it is no longer the furthest out

• Because it gains more electrons

• Because it still has electrons

• Because it has no more electrons

What happens to the valence energy level of sodium after it loses an electron?

• It becomes the innermost shell

• It gains more electrons

• It remains the same

• It becomes the outermost shell with electrons

What is the significance of the valence energy level in ionic bonding?

• It determines the number of protons

• It is where electron transfer occurs

• It is the innermost shell

• It has no significance

Why is it important to understand the concept of valence energy levels?

• To know the number of neutrons

• To understand electron transfer in bonding

• To determine the atomic mass

• To calculate the number of protons
