Here are the answers to your questions about halogens:

i) General electron configuration of the halogens
The general electron configuration for halogens is $\boxed{\text{ns}^2 \text{np}^5}$, where 'n' represents the principal quantum number of the outermost shell.

ii) Complete the table below

Elements	Colour	Physical state
$\text{F}_2$	Pale yellow	Gas
$\text{Cl}_2$	Greenish-yellow	Gas
$\text{Br}_2$	Reddish-brown	Liquid
$\text{I}_2$	Greyish-black	Solid
$\text{At}_2$	Black (estimated)	Solid (estimated)
