The valence electron does the halogens possess are 7
- Valence electrons are found in the outermost energy level of an atom
- They are involved in the formation of chemical bonding with other atoms.
- The halogens elements are found in group 17 on the periodic table
- The halogens include fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine and astatine.
- They have seven valence electrons, so they are extremely reactive as they only need one more to fill their outer shell.
- By octet rule we can say that the electron with 8 outer most shell is full and stable.
Hence the halogens posses 7 valence electron

To prevent the hydrolysis and to catalyse the reaction.
Explanation:
- Sulphuric acid is the catalyst and also a dehydrating agent in this reaction.
- Sulphuric acid is using in redox reaction because sulphuric acid is providing H+ ions which is necessary for this reaction to occur more quickly, but the sulphate ions from the sulphuric acid barely react during this process. So H2SO4 is adding in this reaction to make it more acidic.
- H2SO4 is preventing hydrolysis by providing excess H+ ions into the reaction. H2SO4 is stable towards the direction of oxidation.
