Answers
GPT-4o mini
The element that has six valence electrons is **sulfur (S)**, which is part of Group 16 (or VI A) of the periodic table.
However, this isn't one of the options you've provided.
Among the options given:
- **Phosphorus (P)** has five valence electrons.
- **Oxygen (O)** has six valence electrons.
- **Lead (Pb)** has four valence electrons (as it is in Group 14).
- **Carbon (C)** has four valence electrons.
So from your options, the correct answer is **oxygen (O)**.
