Question

Name the element with 4 valence electrons and 6 energy shells

Answer 1

Answer: Carbon

Step-by-step explanation:

carbon has 4 valence electrons (in the outermost shell) and it has 6 energy shells (also known as electron shells)

Answer 2

Carbon

Step-by-step explanation:

Carbon has 6 protons or the electron distribution (equal to protons) is equal to 2 in first energy shell and 4 in the outer energy shell. This makes the carbon atom look out for four electrons to fill it's octet.
