Question

valence shell electronic configuration for halogens and noble gases?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

The halogens all have seven electrons in their outer shells. The electron configuration in the outer shell is ns² np⁵ . As the atomic number increases, the reactivity of the halogens decreases. Fluorine and chlorine exist as gases at room temperature, while bromine is a liquid, and iodine is a solid.
