A fluorine atom has seven valence electrons. ... Carbon will then have five valence electrons (its four and the one its sharing with fluorine). Covalently sharing two electrons is also known as a “single bond.” Carbon will have to form four single bonds with four different fluorine atoms to fill its octet.
The correct answer is C : energy level.
As you can see in the image of the periodic table presented below, periods are the horizontal columns of the periodic table.
Elements belonging to the same period have the same electron shell, the same number of orbits filled with electrons.
Elements of the same period have similar chemical and physical characteristics
The moon should be between the sun and Earth
Answer:
The ground state configuration is the lowest energy, most stable arrangement. An excited state configuration is a higher energy arrangement (it requires energy input to create an excited state). Valence electrons are the electrons utilised for bonding.

FIGURE 5.9 The arrow shows a second way of remembering the order in which sublevels fill. Table 5.2 shows the electron configurations of the elements with atomic numbers 1 through 18.
Element Atomic number Electron configuration
sulfur 16 1s22s22p63s23p4
chlorine 17 1s22s22p63s23p5
argon 18 1s22s22p63s23p6

Two electrons
Two electrons fill the 1s orbital, and the third electron then fills the 2s orbital. Its electron configuration is 1s22s1.
