Tennessine astatine is estimated to be between 6.2 and 6.5 g/cm. The known isotopes of tennessine, Ts and Ts, are too short-lived to allow for chemical experimentation at present. Nevertheless, many chemical properties of tennessine have been calculated. Unlike the previous group 17 elements, tennessine may not exhibit the chemical behavior common to the halogens. For example, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and iodine routinely accept an electron to achieve the more stable electronic configuration of a noble gas, obtaining eight electrons (octet) in their valence shells instead of seven. This ability weakens as atomic weight increases going down the group; tennessine would
Chlorine pentafluoride with water to produce chloryl fluoride and hydrogen fluoride: It is also a strong fluorinating agent. At room temperature it reacts readily with all elements (including otherwise "inert" elements like platinum and gold) except noble gases, nitrogen, oxygen and fluorine. Chlorine pentafluoride Chlorine pentafluoride is an interhalogen compound with formula ClF. This colourless gas is a strong oxidant that was once a candidate oxidizer for rockets. The molecule adopts a square pyramidal structure with C symmetry, as confirmed by its high-resolution F NMR spectrum. Some of the earliest research on the preparation was classified. It was first prepared by fluorination
