A valence electron is an outer shell electron and may participate in the formation of a chemical bond. Ok but how many valence electrons does an atom of Aluminum have?
In the case of Aluminum the valence electrons is 3. Now let's check the facts about Aluminum...
Learn more about the atomic number.
Learn more about the atomic mass.

SolidDescription
Soft, lightweight, silvery-white metal. Third most abundant element in the earth's crust.Uses
Used for many purposes from airplanes to beverage cans. Too soft in its pure form so less than 1% of silicon or iron is added, which hardens and strengthens it.Name Origin
Latin: alumen, aluminis, (alum).Sources
Never occurs in free form. Obtained by electrolysis from bauxite (Al2O3).Discovery
Discovered By: Hans Christian OerstedYear: 1825
