It needs only 1 more electron since it already has 7 valence electrons.
Bromine (Br) has 35 electrons in total. It has 7 valence electrons (outermost shell) and 28 core electrons (inner electron shells).
Bromine has less valence shells than lead making the distance between its valence electron and its nucleus less than that of lead. This means that there is greater attraction between the nucleus and electron for bromine and it requires a higher ionisation energy to remove its electron.
Francium has one valence electron, its atomic no is 87 and it belong to Ist group of periodic table.
All these have one electron in their valence shell.
As you move across a period, elements have the same number of electron shells but different numbers of valence electrons. This leads to differences in reactivity and chemical properties across the period.
Bromine has 4 electron shells.
Bromine (Br) has 35 electrons in total. It has 7 valence electrons (outermost shell) and 28 core electrons (inner electron shells).
Radium has seven electron shells; the valence of radium is 2+.
2,8,18,7... 28 core electrons 7 valence electrons.
Bromine has less valence shells than lead making the distance between its valence electron and its nucleus less than that of lead. This means that there is greater attraction between the nucleus and electron for bromine and it requires a higher ionisation energy to remove its electron.
Every oxygen atom has -2 as its oxidation number (and 8 electrons in its valence shells). By balancing the charges, bromine is in +5 state: +6 with six bonds with oxygen and -1 from central charge. After counting the electron that is not involved above--bromine has 14 electrons in its valence shell.
Francium has one valence electron, its atomic no is 87 and it belong to Ist group of periodic table.
Period number = no. of electron shells. Therefore neon has two shells.
All these have one electron in their valence shell.
Iodine's electron configuration is 2, 8, 18, 18, 7; bromine's is 2, 8, 18, 7. At the simplest level of modelling there is one more electron shell occupying space in an iodine atom than in one of bromine.
completely filled valence shells
Bromine is a member of the halogen family of elements. Its companions include fluorine, chlorine, and iodine. Like the other halogens, bromine has seven electrons in its outer shell and is very reactive. You will find bromine in many salt compounds with alkali metals. Sodium bromide is a compound found in seawater. As with all reactive elements, bromine is never found alone in nature. It is always a part of a compound with other elements. Source: Chem4kids
