An Allegory is used to tell a story that has characters, a setting, as well as other types of symbols, that have both literal and figurative meanings.
Chlorine is counted among this group along with hydrogen (H 2), iodine (I 2), bromine (Br 2), oxygen (O 2), nitrogen (N 2) and fluorine (Fl 2). With seven electrons in its outermost orbit--one electron short of a stable eight-- the element chlorine exists in nature as a diatomic molecule. This arrangement allows two chlorine atoms to share their outermost orbit electrons, achieving stability, compared to the single atom.
How many protons neutrons electrons does a chlorine molecule? Chlorine has an atomic number of 17. Thus, neutral chlorine will have 17 protons and 17 electrons. Chlorine's most common isotope is 35Cl, meaning it has 35 - 17 = 18 neutronsâ¦.
