What is the number of unpaired electrons in an isolated Fluorine atom

"What is the number of unpaired electrons in an isolated Fluorine atom in the ground state?"

This would be 1?

atomic number 9, so:
2 in first shell
7 in 2nd shell

Most Common Suggestions I Make on the Forums.
1. Start by writing a balanced chemical equation.
2. Don't confuse thermodynamic stability with chemical reactivity.
3. Forum Supports LaTex
