Look at the atomic number. That is the number of protons. Assuming a non-ionic form of Chlorine, that is also the number of electrons.

The most common halogen on the periodic table would have to be either chlorine or iodine.


An element found in 17 of the periodic table?

If you're asking what element is number 17 on the periodic table the answer is Chlorine. Assuming this is for a chemistry class you should have a periodic table available to you and that would be rather easy to look up.


Each row in the periodic table ends when an outer energy level is what?

filled. That would be 2 electrons for helium, and 8 electrons for the rest of the noble gases in group 18 on the periodic table.


What is the configuration for chlorine?

Chlorine is the 17th element in the periodic table. The 1st shell can only hold 2 electrons The 2nd shell can only hold 8 electrons The 3rd shell can only hold 8 electrons Therefore, the electronic configuration would be: 2, 8, 7 1st 2nd 3rd Altogether, it makes up 17.


How would you find valence electrons in a periodic table?

the group number of the periodic table shows the valence electron. such as :- sodium is placed in group 1 and have valence electron.


What is an element in the periodic table that would have the same electron dot diagram as chlorine?

Fluorine, Chlorine, Iodine, and Astatine. You can find this out just from looking at a periodic table. (Electrons are what create the properties of atoms). Because of electrons and how they are placed around an atom all of the elements in the same group on the periodic table (vertical column) share the same properties. If you want to learn more as to why this is the case look up more about electrons.

How do you find number of electrons in periodic table or how do you calculate the number of electrons?

A neutral atom has the same number of electrons as it does protons. The atomic numbers on the periodic table for each element are the number of protons. So, look up the element on the periodic table, note its atomic number, and you will then know the number of protons and electrons in a neutral atom of that element. For example, magnesium (Mg) has atomic number 12. So a neutral Mg atom would have 12 protons and 12 electrons.
