From the options provided for each element below, choose the properties that it may have based on its location in the periodic table. fluorine (f):
a.) highly reactive nonmetal
b.)shiny
c.) aconductor

answer is: option a

The correct answer is Option A.

Explanation:

Fluorine is the 9th element in the periodic table which belongs to group 17 and period 2. It is a non-metal because it requires an electron to gain its stable electronic configuration.

The electronic configuration of this elements is:

This element requires 1 electron to attain stable configuration. It is an insulator  and is not lustrous.

This element easily gains an electron and hence, is considered as a highly reactive non-metal.

Hence, the correct answer is Option A.
