True
Chlorine readily accepts another electron because it just needs to gain one more e- to complete its outer shell of valence electrons. Once chlorine's outer shell is filled, the element becomes more stable. Chlorine's whole family of elements (F, Cl, Br, I) all readily accept one more electron.
I'd predict that francium would combine less readily than cesium.
In most cases, chlorine is more reactive than bromine. This occurs because chlorine has a higher electronegativity than bromine. Thus, chlorine tends to take electrons from other substances more readily than bromine, and thus is more reactive.
choline react readliy because it need to gain 1 electron to fill it's outer shell.

It is non-reactive because it's shells are full. Argon has three electron shells. It's third shell is filled with eight electrons. That is why it does not easily combine with other elements.
A Nitrogen molecule(N2) has a triple bond between it Nitrogen will only react only if the bond is broken. And since Chlorine cannot break this triple bond, under normal conditions, it does not react with nitrogen readily.
From a purely electronegative standpoint, Flourine is most likely to be an electron acceptor.
Because a sodium atom loses its outer electron very readily, and a chlorine atom gains one very readily. Thus they are a perfect match for one another.
Chlorine atom has 17 electrons. It is readily accepting an electron from another atom to obtain its stable electron configuration (of argon). A chloride ion has 18 electrons.
Chlorine is very active element. It readily combine with any organic matter. So you do not find free chlorine in your body. You find the chlorine as sodium chloride out side the cells. You find double amount of chlorine in, potassium chloride, that is present inside the cells.
true
both, since both are one electron short of a stable octet, hence why both are reactive elements. Bond formation is favoured with other elements, though the natural states of the elements are different, group one and seven will b0nd preferentially if poossible.
Beryllium is in group 2 and has two valence electrons which can readily be removed by Fluorine to form BeF2
