Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Chlorine has 17 electrons in it's shell.

(See the attached file to get the idea of what subshell would be filled first).

The accommodations:

s = 2 electrons

p = 6 electrons

d = 10 electrons

f = 14 electrons

Now, the electronic configuration of chlorine:

1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁵

(2+2+6+2+5 = 17 electrons)


\rule[225]{225}{2}

Hope this helped!
