Valency:

The combining power (or capacity) of an element is called its valency. Valency can be used to find out how the atoms of an element will combine with the atom(s) of another element to form a chemical compound. The valency of an ion is equal to the charge on the ion.

The valency of an element is defined as its capacity  to combine with other elements. It is measured by the number of hydrogen or chlorine atoms which combine with or are displaced by one atom of the element.
