5 electrons in p orbitals in the outer shell.

Cl has an electronic configuration of [Ne] 3s2, 3p5

In level 2 there a further 6 electrons in p orbitals making 11 electrons in total occupying p orbitals

What is the relationship between orbitals and energy levels in an atom?

In an atom, energy levels represent the different energy states that electrons can occupy. Orbitals are regions within an energy level where electrons are likely to be found. Each energy level can contain multiple orbitals, each with a specific shape and orientation. The higher the energy level, the farther the orbitals are from the nucleus, and the higher the energy of the electrons in those orbitals.


The hybridization of the central atom in ClF2 is?

The central atom in ClF2 is chlorine. In ClF2, the chlorine atom undergoes sp3d hybridization, resulting in five hybrid orbitals around the chlorine atom. Three of these hybrid orbitals participate in bonding with fluorine atoms, while the other two contain lone pairs of electrons.

Are protons and electrons both found in the nucleus of a chlorine atom?

No, protons are found in the nucleus of a chlorine atom, while electrons are located outside the nucleus in electron shells. Chlorine has 17 protons in its nucleus, but the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons to maintain overall charge neutrality.
