Question

In a molecule of fluorine, the two shared electrons give each fluorine atom how many electron(s) in the outer energy level

Answer 1

Answer:

8 electrons

Explanation:

As per the octet rule, the atoms possess a tendency to bond in a manner that every atom must have at least eight(8) electrons in its outermost/valence shell. It can be done either by sharing, gaining, or losing electrons from one atom to another. According to this rule, flourine would have 8 electrons in its outer shell after two shared electrons are given to it.
