The electron configuration of an element is shown below. 1s22s22p5

Name the group this element belongs to in the periodic table and explain your answer.

Based on the electron configuration, explain how many electrons it is likely to receive from the atom of another element during the formation of a bond.

it is in group 7

Explanation:it is in this group because in the increasing number of atomic number the element is found in group seven. The element is likely to receive 3 electrons while bonding with another element to make it stable.

Group 17

Explanation:

1s22s22p5 is the electron configuration of fluorine, F.  The outer shell has 7 valence electrons (2s2 2p5) and needs i one more to fill its outer shell.  It will beg, lie and steal 1 more electron when it gets the chance.  It will then have an filled octetr outer shell.

the answer is 1 i believe

i believe the answer is true.
