Name three elements with seven valence electrons in their outermost shell. How do their non-metallic character and atomic size change down the group?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Three elements which have seven valence electrons in their outermost shell are fluorine, chlorine, and bromine (or any other group 17 elements / halogens). Their non-metallic character decreases while atomic size increases down the group.
