FAST WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!! Read the information about the halogen family. Elements within a group share similar properties. Elements in the halogen family, such as fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), and iodine (I), all have seven valence electrons. Iodine is an important element for human health. The thyroid gland uses iodine to produce hormones. One of the hormones it makes is a covalent compound called thyroxine, which is shown in the image. Given this information, what effect do you think other halogen elements have on human health? State your prediction, and do some research on one of the halogen elements to see how it affects human health. List your findings, and then give your opinion on whether you think the element you chose should be used in food products, cleaning products, or in other manners that cause it to come in contact with humans. Be sure to provide evidence from your research to support your opinion.

assuming that your periodic table has eighteen columns, you should highlight   the four elements in the third column from the left of the table.

neutral atoms of elements after calcium contain d electrons. the energy of d orbitals of a particular main shell lies between the energy of the s and p orbitals of the next main shell. for example, electrons in the have energy higher than those in the orbital while lower than those of the orbital.

by the aufbau principle, electrons fill orbitals one at a time, starting from those of the lowest energy. the orbital is therefore filled right after orbitals and before orbitals.  

potassium has electron configuration and calcium . the s orbital of a main shell holds a maximum of two electrons. the next element would thus have the electron configuration and satisfy the requirements.

a neutral atom of the element contains three electrons on top of the most recent noble gas element. it should thus be placed in the third column of the periodic table. both scandium and yttrium would satisfy the conditions. an aufbau diagram indicates that the 4f orbital is filled before the 5d. however, it appears that exceptions exists for both lanthanum and actinium. neutral atoms of the two d-block elements also demonstrate the and should be highlighted as well.

the correct answer would be d. hope this !
