Boron (B) and aluminum (Al) are both in Group 3A. This is because
Boron (B) and aluminum (Al) have three electrons in their highest energy level.
Boron (B) and aluminum (Al) end with p orbitals.
Boron (B) and aluminum (Al) have the same valence shell.
Boron (B) and aluminum (Al) are metals.
The highest energy level (n) of an atom that contains electrons is the (a) .
The electrons residing in the highest energy level are called (a) .
The valence shell of an atom with an electron configuration of 1s22s22p63s1 is (a) .
The valence electrons of an atom with an electron configuration of 1s22s22p63s23p1 is (a) .

To which group in the periodic table does an atom with outer electron configuration of 3s23p1 belong?
(a)
To what period in the periodic table do elements with valence shell of 5 belong?
(a)
To what group in the periodic table do elements with valence electrons of 4 belong?
(a)
The stable elements are found in group (a) of the periodic table.
Possessing eight valence electrons is a highly stable state for an atom.
This is referred to as (a) rule.
If an atom gains or loses electrons to achieve an octet, this newly formed particle would have an unequal number of protons and electrons and a net charge. These charged atoms are called (a) .
Ions formed when atoms gain electrons and become
negatively charged are called (a) .
Ions formed when atoms lose electrons and become positively charged are called (a) .
