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 :)

and all of the elements in group 2 (Alkaline Earth Metals) have 2 valence electrons.
