- The number of valence electrons it possesses.

उत्तर
Atom ‘A’ has mass number A = 39 and atomic number Z = 19 = p
∴ A = Z + n
A = p + n
39 = 19 + n
n = 39 – 19 = 20
But e = p = 19
- A (K, L, M, N)
19 = 2, 8, 8, 1
There will be 2 electrons in K-shell or 1st shell
8 electrons in 2nd shell or L-shell
8 electrons in 3rd shell or M-shell
1 electron in 4th shell or nth-shell - The number of valence electrons i.e. in outer most shell = 1 electron.
