- In chemistry, the
valence (US spelling) or
valency (British spelling) of an atom is a
measure of its
combining capacity with
other atoms when it forms...
- This

atomic valence,
especially the
tetravalence of
carbon (which Kekulé
announced late in 1857) and the
ability of carbon...

Although the

still fulfilled.
