Electromagnetically decreases when the elements are considered in order of increasing atomic number.
In this problem they were asking regarding group 17.
Final answer: Electromagnetically
Answer:
The elements in each group have the same number of electrons in the outer orbital. Those outer electrons are also called valence electrons.
Explanation:
<span>In the 19th century, scientists realized that gases in the atmosphere cause a "greenhouse effect" which affects the planet's temperature. These scientists were interested chiefly in the possibility that a lower level of carbon dioxide gas might explain the ice ages of the distant past. At the turn of the century, Svante Arrhenius calculated that emissions from human industry might someday bring a global warming. Other scientists dismissed his idea as faulty. In 1938, G.S. Callendar argued that the level of carbon dioxide was climbing and raising global temperature, but most scientists found his arguments implausible. It was almost by chance that a few researchers in the 1950s discovered that global warming truly was possible. In the early 1960s, C.D. Keeling measured the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere: it was rising fast. Researchers began to take an interest, struggling to understand how the level of carbon dioxide had changed in the past, and how the level was influenced by chemical and biological forces. They found that the gas plays a crucial role in climate change, so that the rising level could gravely affect our future.

The empirical formula : C₁₂H₄F₇
The molecular formula : C₂₄H₈F₁₄

mol C (MW=12 g/mol)

mol H(MW=1 g/mol) :

mol F(MW=19 g/mol)

mol ratio of C : H : O =1.52 : 0.51 : 0.89=3 : 1 : 1.75=12 : 4 : 7
Empirical formula : C₁₂H₄F₇
(Empirical formula)n=molecular formula
( C₁₂H₄F₇)n=562 g/mol
(12.12+4.1+7.19)n=562
(281)n=562⇒ n =2
Molecular formula : C₂₄H₈F₁₄
