    There are 5 valence electrons in Valence Shell.

    Example,

    Lets take example of Arsenic with Atomic Number 33.

    Its electronic Configuration is,

    [Ar] 4s², 3d¹⁰ 4p³

    As the valence shell number is 4, so all the electrons present in shell 4 are said to be valence shell electrons and they are 5 in number.
