Question

Use the periodic table to answer the question. Which element has the same number of valence electrons as bromine (Br)? (1 point) Responses potassium (K) potassium (K) selenium (Se) selenium (Se) krypton (Kr) krypton (Kr) chlorine (Cl)

Answer 1

Bromine (Br) is in group 17 of the periodic table and has 7 valence electrons. The element that has the same number of valence electrons as bromine is chlorine (Cl), which is also in group 17.

So, the correct response is **chlorine (Cl)**.
