Verified by Toppr

Elements having the atomic number:

9 is fluorine: (He)2s22p5
17 is chlorine: (Ne)3s23p5
35 is bromine: (Ar)4s24p5
53 is iodine: (Kr)5s25p5

We can observe here that all these elements having the general electronic configuration of ns2np5, hence these elements belong to 17th group elements.
