    The significance of the number of electrons in an atom's highest energy level (valence electrons) is that atoms typically bond with other atoms to form compounds with a total of eight valence electrons. If an atom already has all eight valence electrons, then it is a noble gas (such as neon, argon, krypton, and more), and will not bond.
