If only the group number of 14 is known, the correct statement is:
**The element has 4 valence electrons.**
Group 14 elements have 4 valence electrons, as they are in the p-block of the periodic table and include elements like carbon, silicon, germanium, tin, and lead. The other statements about neutrons, total electrons, or protons cannot be accurately made without knowing the specific element or its atomic number.
