Answer 1

Valence shell: The valence shell is the outermost shell of an atom.

• If the outermost shell is completely filled with electrons then it is a noble gas.
• If the outermost shell is partially filled with electrons then the electrons present in the valence shell are known as valence electrons.

Therefore, the electrons present in the outermost shell are valence electrons.
