group one has 1 valence electron and group two has two valence electrons. You can tell by e/ of the atomic structures of the elements but to make it simpler, just remeber that group one starts with one and then goes to two. and then the halogens and noble gases equal a negative number of valence electrons. good luck, hope this helps :)

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
