Based on the trends in the periodic table, the noble gas notation of the element with atomic number 117 will be[Rn]5f146d107s27p5


When a different kind element that radioactive is mixed with another element that not radioactive does it react?

Of course. Chemistry still applies, and that is based on the electron configuration, not the nucleus, per se.


What predicts an element's properties?

The answer you are probably looking for is the periodic table, which arranges the elements. The periodic table can help predict properties of an element based on the element's location. All the elements in a veritcle collum (also known as family or group) will have the same number of valence electrons and thus behave in a similar manner. Elements can also be compared to one another on the horizontal axis(the period). i.e. moving from left to right elements become less metalic and do not exibit metallic properties as stongly. General location on the table can tell you what type of element it is; metal, nonmetal, metalloid/semimetal. or the # of protons and electrons in the element, the atomic mass.


What is wrong with 1s22s22p63s23p64s24d104p6?

The electron configuration provided seems to be incorrect. The correct electron configuration for an element is based on the Aufbau principle, which governs the way electrons fill energy levels and sublevels. Double-check the electron configuration using the correct order of filling for orbitals.


What is the outermost electronic configuration of the most electronegative element?

Electronegativity is, to some extent, a subjective value (though based on a composite of actually measurable physical properties). The highest electronegativity is usually assigned to fluorine. The electron configuration of fluorine's outermost shell is 2s2 2p5.


In orde rto be like noble gas an element can change which subatomic particle?

An element can either gain or lose electrons to achieve a noble gas electron configuration. Such an electron configuration gives an atom of an element a full outer shell, thereby making that element's ion nonreactive. Metals tend to lose electrons, and become cations, whereas nonmetals tend to gain electrons, and become anions. The amount of electrons an element gains of loses is based on the group/family the element is found in on the Periodic Table.


How can you predict the placement of an unknown element on a periodic table based on physical an chemical properties?

You look at trends. An element is likely to have properties somewhere between the element above it and the element below it; if there's nothing below it (or above it), then you can follow the general trend up (or down) that column and extrapolate.


Which properties of bromine could you NOT predict based on the fact that is a nonmetal in the halogen family?

Bromine is a liquid element. This property cannot be entirely predicted due to its placement on the Periodic Table. The most obvious property that can be predicted is that it is a non metal. But liquidity most certainly is the more difficult of the propertys to predict.
