Answer:
Yes, same piece can be used.
Explanation:
The same piece can be used for two different atoms are acceptable because both atoms has 7 electrons in their outermost valance shell. Both atoms belong to same group i. e. halogens so same piece can be used for both atoms. If the atoms belong to different groups and they have different number of electrons in their outermost shell so using same piece will be a problem so it is recommended to use different pieces for different atoms.
The use of the same modeling piece for chlorine and fluorine has been accepted as it has consisted of the same properties and belongs to the same group.
Chlorine and fluorine have been the elements of group 17. The elements are halogens with the presence of 7 valence electrons.
The elements have been belonging to the same group and have the same number of valence electrons thus resembling each other in the chemical properties.
Since both the elements are similar to each other, the use of the same piece for two different atoms has been acceptable.
