Reactivity trends of halogen:
1) Melting point and boiling points increased down the
group
2) Colour becomes darker.
E.g. Fluorine (pale yellow)
Chlorine (yellowish-green)
Bromine (reddish-brown)
Iodine (purplish-black)
Astatine (black)
3) The reactivity decreases down the group.
Reactivity:
F > Cl > Br > I > At
Answer:
B is the correct answer hope it helps
If there is a constant loss of
the concentration of
will be affected and decrease since
is a main component of

Answer: 8 electrons
Explanation: Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost shell of an atom and they are important in chemical reactions.
Atoms are <em>happy</em> when they follow the octet rule which states that 2 electrons can go in the first shell and 8 electrons can go in the other shells.
Electrons are happy when they have a full outer shell which usually needs to be 8 electrons. However, some of the smaller elements like helium are happy because they can hold a max of 2 electrons and helium has 2 electrons since it has 2 protons in its core as well as 2 electrons in its energy levels.
