Searching for this question, I found the options on the internet.
"1.<span />Two atoms share electrons so they can fill their outer shells<span>2.The constant motion of electrons and the creation of charge imbalances bonds two molecules together3.A hydrogen atom with a slight positive charge is attracted to a negative charge of another molecule or atom4.One atom loses one or more electrons and the other atom gains one or more electrons"

The correct answer would be number 1. A covalent bond is achieved when two atoms share electrons from their outer shell so that they have a full outer shell leading to the electronic configuration balance they need.</span>

The number of electrons in the outermost principal energy level of a chlorine atom is
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

seven electrons

Explanation:

Chlorine is present in group seventeen of periodic table. It is halogen element. All halogens have seven electrons in outer most valance shell.

The require only one electron to gain the stable electronic configuration or to complete the octet.

Electronic configuration of chlorine:

Cl₁₇ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁵

Abbreviated electronic configuration:

Cl₁₇ = [Ne] 3s² 3p⁵

Properties of chlorine:

1. it is greenish-yellow irritating gas.

2. its melting point is 172.2 K

3. its boiling point is 238.6 K

4. it is disinfectant and can kill the bacteria.

5. it is also used in manufacturing of paper, paints and textile industries.

A fire is an example of ________________ reaction, because heat is _____________ the system.
Over [174]

d. exothermic; leaving

  • Exothermic reaction is a reaction that produces heat in the reaction whereas the endothermic reaction is a reaction in which heat is required to be given in the reaction to produce product.
  • Fire is an exothermic reaction.
  • A fire is produced due to oxidation of the fuel in the form of liquid or gas.
  • A fire is an example of combustion.
  • In fire both heat and light are left from fire due to the oxidation of fuel.

Hence, option d. exothermic; leaving is the correct option.
