Expert Solution
Step 1

Valence shell

The outer most shell of an atom is called valence shell.

The electron shells are labelled as K, L, M, N etc which are numbered as 1, 2, 3 etc.

Atomic number 

It gives the total number of protons in an atom.

Mass number

It gives the total number of protons and neutrons in an atom.
