What is the valency of a stable atom

Open in App
Solution

Valency is a measure of the reactivity of an atom or molecule. The valency is the number of electrons required by the atom to gain stability
A stable atom doesn't need anymore electrons because they already are atable.
So valency of a stable atom will be zero
