How do valence electrons impact the type of bonds an atom makes? (1 point)
A small number of valence electrons means the atom will share electrons; a large number of valence electrons leads to transferring from one atom to another.

An atom wants a full outer shell of valence electrons, so it will either transfer or share electrons depending on what the other atom needs.
