Awesome video thank you!! Would you please be able to explain why Cl is happy having a negative charge? 😊

[@bremmethod]

Yes! Atoms are happiest when they have full octets (8) with their electrons. Chlorine as a neutral atom is a halogen - it has 7 electrons. It's so close to completing it's octet! When it gains a - charge, it gets that final electron, filling out the 8 spots in it's valence shell. That makes it happy (aka stable)! All halogens will behave this way, and will be happy with a negative charge, which is why they are all good leaving groups. Hope this helps!
