Complete 8th-grade Valency Table (Valency Table of Chemical Elements)

To excel in Chemistry, memorizing the valency of chemical elements is crucial as it forms the fundamental basis for solving any chemistry-related problems. Here is the complete valency table for 8th-grade chemical elements, shared with you.

1. Some chemical elements

The valency of a chemical element is determined by the total number of chemical bonds it forms in a molecule.

The Valency Table comprises information about the number of protons, element names, chemical symbols, atomic masses, and valency, written in Roman numerals. In this article, Mytour shares the valency of some chemical elements found in the 8th-grade curriculum to help you reinforce fundamental chemistry knowledge.

Note:

Non-metal elements: text in green

Metal elements: text in black

Rare elements shine like red letters

2. Valency of some atomic groups of atoms

Besides the valency of common chemical elements, you need to equip yourself with the valency of some atomic groups of atoms to apply them more effectively in problem-solving.

3. The Valency Song - The fastest way to memorize the valency table

To aid your memory of the valency table, Mytour presents you with the valency song below:

Potassium, Iodine, Hydrogen

Sodium with silver, Chlorine in its own way

All with valency 1, oh dear friend

Remember to note it down clearly, or confusion may surround you

Magnesium, Lead, Zinc, Mercury

Calcium, Copper, they're also close to Bari

Finally, add dear Oxygen

Chemical bonding with valency 2, what challenges does it bring?

Uncle Aluminum has a trivalence, not once but thrice

Write deep in memory when needed right away

Carbon, Silicon right here

Valency 4, unforgettable every day

Iron there tells a familiar name

2, 3 up and down, truly annoying, alas

Nitrogen, the most troublesome in life

1, 2, 3, 4 as Thursday arrives

Sulfur, mischievous in playful times

Down to 2, up to 6 when lying on Wednesday

Phosphorus, talked about without excess

If anyone asks, just scoff and say 5

Hey, study hard, my dear

The periodic table song is crucial throughout the year.
