Halogens are not like metals. Halogens are elements missing one electron for full valency.

Halogens are not salts but they are chemical elements; halogens can form salts reacting with metals.
The two most reactive groups of elements in the periodic table are the alkali metals and the halogens. Halogens are nonmetals located in group 17 of the periodic table and include elements like fluorine, chlorine, and iodine.
There are no elements that are both alkali metals and halogens. Alkali metals belong to Group 1 of the periodic table and include elements like lithium, sodium, and potassium, while halogens belong to Group 17 and include elements like fluorine, chlorine, and iodine. These two groups are distinct and do not overlap.
Metals: alkaline metals Nonmetals: halogens
Halogens: When reacting with halogens, these metals create metal halides. Halide refers to a compound that is one part halogen. These reactions would look similar to
Halogens are second from the rightmost column (The Noble Gases) in the periodic table. The Alkali Earth Metals are the second column from the left in the periodic table after the alkali metals.
No, halogen elements like fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, and astatine do not rust because they are nonmetals and do not undergo the rusting process that typically affects metals like iron. Halogens are highly reactive in other ways, but rusting specifically applies to the oxidation of metals.
Halogens are the most reactive non-metals on the periodic table.
Alkali metals, like sodium and potassium, have one valence electron and readily lose it to form a +1 cation. Halogens, like chlorine and fluorine, have seven valence electrons and readily gain one electron to form a -1 anion. When alkali metals react with halogens, the alkali metal donates its electron to the halogen, forming an ionic compound.
