Question 9Valence electronsAHave low energy and are found in the outermost enery levelBHave the highest energy and found in the outermost energy levelСHave the highest energy and found in the closet energy levelDHave low energy and are found in the closet energy level

Answer 1

`B`

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to select the option true of valence electrons

Valence electrons are electrons that reside in the outermost shell of the atom

They have the highest energy of the different kinds of electrons present in the atom

Due to their very high energy levels, they reside in the farthest position from the nucleus which is the outermost or valence shell

The correct answer here is thus B
