Find the valency of 147N and 3517Cl.


147N
 The atomic number of nitrogen = 7,
No. of protons = 7,
No. of electrons = 7
Electronic configuration = K L                 
                                                   2 5 
Valency = 3                               
Hence, either it will gain three electrons or share 3 electrons to complete its octet.

3517Cl.
The atomic number of chlorine = 17,
No of protons = 17,
No of electrons =17
Electronic configuration = K L M
                                                   2 8 7
Valency = 1
Hence, it will gain 1 electron to complete its octet.
