What part of the atom is involved in chemical bonding?
- A Nucleus
- B Valence electrons
- C Protons
- D None of the above
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost shell of an atom that are involved in chemical bonding. These electrons determine the atom's reactivity and ability to form chemical bonds with other atoms. The nucleus, which contains protons and neutrons, does not directly participate in chemical bonding.
