Valence means good or bad, positive or negative.

A uranium atom has 92 protons and 92 electrons, of which 6 are valence electrons.

So three important ones that I can think of are persistence, gradations in intensity, and valence.

1864 Lothar Meyer develops an early version of the periodic table, with 28 elements organized by valence.

Biography Groves was born in Newton Valence, Hampshire, England and was the only son in a family of six.

Studies have consistently shown that holding all else equal, subjects will predict positive outcomes to be more likely than negative outcomes (see valence effect).

Their work was based on the valence bond model, which assumes that a chemical bond is formed when there is good overlap between the atomic orbitals of participating atoms.

In chemistry, valence bond (VB) theory is one of two basic theories, along with molecular orbital (MO) theory, that were developed to use the methods of quantum mechanics to explain chemical bonding.

And when you're happy what we call positive valence you squirt dopamine into the prefrontal lobes, which makes you a breadth first problem solver you're more susceptible to interruption you do out of the box thinking.

They are similar to electron dot diagrams in that the valence electrons in lone pairs are represented as dots, but they also contain lines to represent shared pairs in a chemical bond (single, double, triple, etc.).

Still, the word crowd has taken on an entirely different meaning and political valence in our century. Crowdsourcing and crowd funding have created new kinds of crowds, of the sort that Le Bon never could have imagined.

For example, a proton has a mass of approximately 938 MeV c2, of which the rest mass of its three valence quarks only contributes about 11 MeV c2 much of the remainder can be attributed to the gluons' QCBE.

Although main group elements of the second period and beyond usually react by gaining, losing, or sharing electrons until they have achieved a valence shell electron configuration with a full octet of (8) electrons, other elements obey different rules.
