Identify the element cesium (Cs) on the periodic table. Cesium is an alkali metal located in Group 1.
Recall that the group number for main-group elements indicates the number of valence electrons. For Group 1 elements, there is 1 valence electron.
Understand that valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost shell of an atom that participate in chemical bonding.
Confirm that cesium, being in Group 1, has a single electron in its outermost shell, which means it has 1 valence electron.
Therefore, the number of valence electrons in cesium (Cs) is 1.
