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.
Answer:
because im trynna get these 5 points
Explanation:

Since both atoms are the same and are both nonmetals, they would form a Nonpolar covalent bond. This bond occurs when usually atoms of the same element or atoms of propriety electronegativity differences are sharing electrons to form bonds. There is an equal sharing of valence electrons in this chemical bond.
