Which of an atom's subatomic particles are involved in chemical bonding?
select one:
a. valence electrons only
b. neutrons only
c. protons and valence electrons only
d. neutrons and protons only

Astable electron arrangement for an atom is one that does not easily change. how is this arrangement arrived at? a. valence electrons are transferred or shared to create a full outer shell of electrons. b. valence electrons are discarded into space to create a full outer shell of electrons. c. protons (positive charge) pair with valence electrons (negative charge) to create a strong bond. d. outer shells with valence electrons are transferred or shared.
