Be sure to answer all parts. Determine the number of atoms of each element in the empirical formula of a compound with the
following composition:
62.40 percent C, 9892 percent 1, 27.70 percent o.

the answer is c.the valence of the atoms combine .

the seeing the electronic configuration we can say that the element is fluorine.

fluorine is the most electronegative element in the periodic table.

but by only seeing the configuration we cannot say about its reactivity because we don't know if its configuration after excitation or by addition of electrons.

but if not then, it is the lightest halogen and exists as a highly toxic pale yellow diatomic gas at standard conditions. as the most electronegative element, it is extremely reactive: almost all other elements, including some noble gases, form compounds with fluorine.
