how can we determine the valency of an element by only looking at the distribution of electrons in K L M N orbits ?

Expert Answer:
The valency can be easily calculated with the help of distribution of electrons by using rules
Rule 1 : if the valence electrons are less than 4 than the valency = no of valence electrons
Rule 2: If the valence electrons are greater than 4 the valency= 8 - no of valence electrons
