Post: #6. I pay $75 a week ($300 mo) which I had to negotiate with the salon owner who wanted to charge $125 a week. His location and salon does not warrant higher than $300 a month. The hair stylist are paying $200 a week.
The number of electrons in any atom always equals the number of protons (to make the atom electrically neutral). The atomic number of any element tells you how many protons thâ¦ere are in the nucleus of an atom of that element. The atomic number for platinum (Pt) is 78, and the atomic weight is 195.       Thus, it will have 78 protons.     When electrically Neutral, it will also have 78 electrons.
A quick way to determine the number of valence electrons for a representative element is to look at which group is it in. Elements in group Ia have 1 valence electron. Elements in group IIa have 2 valence electrons. Can you guess how many valence electrons elements in group VIa have? If you guessed 6 valence electrons, then you are correct! The only group of representative elements that this method doesn't work for is group 0. Those elements certainly have more than 0 valence electrons; in fact, all of them except for helium have 8 valence electrons. Why doesn't helium have 8 valence electrons? Think for a moment about how many electrons helium has - it ...
