You may look at what group they are in
Group
1A=Group 1
2A = Group 2
3A = Group 13
4A= Group 14
5A=Group 15
6A=Group 16
7A=Group 17

The #A tells you how many valence electrons there are by the # before A. Such as Chlorine, which is in 7A, so therefore has 7 valence electrons.

Answer:

Sample Response: All elements in the same group of the periodic table have the same number of valence electrons. This made it possible to compare the valence of the alien elements to the valence of elements from our periodic table, and match the alien elements to the correct group. For example, our group 14 elements all have 4 valence electrons, so the alien element with 4 valence electrons had to be part of group 14 also.
