  • In chemistry, valence, sometimes called valency, is a characteristic of an element that establishes how many other atoms of the element each atom can interact with. 
  • The element E given in the table has atomic number 18 which means its electronic configuration is as 2,8,8. which is Argon.
  • This shows that the outermost shell has 8 electrons and it is a fully filled shell. Hence, the element E has a valency of 0. It is a noble gas and they have zero valency value.
