How many electrons are in the highest occupied energy level of a group 5a element? a. 4 c. 5 b. 6 d. 7

As you know, an element'svalence electrons are simply theelectrons located on the outermost energy level, i.e. on thehighest occupied energy level. Therefore, you can say that anelement located in group 5A has 5 electrons on its highest occupied energy level. so the answer would be c.5
