It is a measurement related to the number of chemical bonds established by the atoms of chemical elements.

There are different kinds of valence in chemistry. The maximum positive valence is the positive digit that reflects the highest capacity of an atom to combine and which is the same for the group to which it corresponds in the periodic table of elements .

When there is a conflict between positive and negative valences, we speak of ambivalence .
