Detailed Solution

The next halogen will have7s27p5 outer configuration. Once the 5f and 6d-orbitals are completely filled then only the fillings of 7p-orbitals will begin. So, the atomic number of the new halogen will be 112 for the fillings of 6d-orbitals and then plus 5 to get the required atomic number i.e. 117.
