It depends on the number of valence electrons required to make octet or duplet( in case of H). For example, Nitrogen(atomic number = 7) has electronic configuration(2,5) which means nitrogen has 5 valence electrons and requires 3 more electrons to complete its octet. After gaining 3 electrons from atoms of an element with less electronegativity than N, it forms nitride ion (
). Hope this helps.

Answer:
Enantiomers
Chiral
Yes they will be formed in equal amount.
Explanation:
The Two possible stereo isomers are formed due to generation a chiral center in the molecule.
There will be a carbon with all the four groups different.
The two isomers will be called as enantiomers, which are non super-imposable mirror image of each other.
They are named as "R" or "S'" based on the selection rule.
The IUPAC names are also given in the figure.
The two isomers will be formed in equal amount as during photochemical chloriantion of a compound free radicals are generated (which are trigonal planar) and the other radical may attack from either side (front side or back side) giving the two stereo-isomers.
