seven
Chlorine has 7 electrons in the outermost shell. It is in the 17th group. It has 7 valence electrons.

Noble gases are very stable because their outermost electron shells contain the maximum number of electrons that those outermost shells can possess. This is a correct statement. Yes.

There are 7 valence electrons in chlorine.
Chlorine is in the 17th period.Elements in the 17th period have 7 electrons in the outermost energy level. So chlorine has 7 electrons in the 3rd energy level.Chlorine has 17 electrons. It's electron configuration is [Ne] 3s2 3p5. Therefore it has 7 electrons in its third (outermost) energy level.

It depends on the number of electrons in the outer valence shell in the atom
Valency is the number of electrons to reach the stable number of 8 electrons in its outer shell. Electrically neutral chlorine has 7 electrons its outermost shell. This means that a single bond, where two electron orbitals overlap is required to form the stable element allotrope, therefore two atoms of chlorine are needed.
The chloride ion (Cl-) has 8 electrons on the outermost energy level.
Noble gases are very stable because their outermost electron shells contain the maximum number of electrons that those outermost shells can possess. This is a correct statement. Yes.
What man, it's very simple -- since chlorine has atomic number 17 and has 7 electrons in its outermost orbit and being a electronegative element it will most probably gain a electron. Well in which standard are you?
when the chlorine atom gains an electron its charge becomes -1. this is because the total number of electrons for chlorine is now 18. protons and electrons have the same atomic number, but when a chlorine ion forms it has one extra electron compared to the number of protons therefore giving it a negative charge of 1.
