The most important electrons because they involved in bonding. # Electron Configuration Elements in the same group have the same valence electron configuration E.g. Li and Na - Li<sub>3</sub>: 1s<sup>2</sup>2s<sup>1</sup> = 1s<sup>2</sup> 2s<sup>1</sup> - Na<sub>11</sub>: [Ne] 3s<sup>1</sup> = [Ne] 3s<sup>1</sup>
