How many electrons do the Halogens all have in their outer shells?
 

  1. 5
  2. 6
  3. 7
  4. 8

hintHint:

Halogens have one electron less than noble gas.

The correct answer is: 7


    • Halogens are in the 17th group of periodic table.
    • Their valence shell has one electron less than noble gas. Fulfilled valence shell has 8 electrons.
    • Halogens have seven electrons in the outermost shell.
