The element that does not have the same number of electrons in its outermost shell as the other elements in its group is **hydrogen (H)**.
Hydrogen has 1 electron in its outermost shell, while boron has 3 and bromine has 7. Helium, while not in the same group as the others, is a noble gas with a full outer shell of 2 electrons but does not fit into the typical group classification with the other three.
