no halogens are not metals as they are on the left side of the Periodic Table which appears to be the side of non metals
they have tendency to gain electron where as metals have tendency to donate or give electron
they form covalent bonds whereas metals form ionic bonds
these are few differences hope you find more :)
Too bad halogens are on the RIGHT side, which is where nonmetals are. Left side is metals. Ding dong.
^^GREAT ANSWER (FROM ANOTHER PERSON) :)
What else can I help you with?
Are halogen and alkali metals the same?
No, halogen metals and alkali metals are not the same. They are both groups of elements on the periodic table with distinct chemical properties. Halogen metals are found in Group 17 and are highly reactive nonmetals, while alkali metals are found in Group 1 and are highly reactive metals.
What are the common properties of halogen?
highly reactive with alkali metals and alkaline earth metals
Is beryllium in the halogen family?
earth-alkalines metals
What elements react the best with the alkali metals?
Non metals form ionic bonds with metals. Non metals gain the electrons while metals loose. Alkali metals reacts with halogen family in efficient manner.
What is formed when halogen and alkali metals react?
something sciency
What family in the Periodic table contain the most reactive metals?
Alkali metals are most reactive metals. Halogen family comprises of highly reactive non-metals.
Which of these groups of metals is the most active alkaline earth alkali halogen coinage?
The alkali group of metals is the most active.
What elements react with metals?
Elements from the boron, carbon, pnictogen, chalcogen and halogen families (groups 13 to 17) react with metals.
What react with halogen to form salt?
Halogen reacts with metals to form salts. For example, sodium reacts with chlorine to form sodium chloride (table salt).
Family characteristics of bromine?
Bromine is a halogen. The Halogens are very reactive non-metals.
Is fluorine an alkali metal or halogen?
No single element can be both an alkali metal (form +1 cations) and a halogen (form -1 anions).Alkali metals :LithiumSodiumPotassiumRubidiumCesiumFranciumHalogens:FluorineChlorineBromineIodineAstatine
What group are in the main group in the periodic table?
The three main element groups are alkali metals , alkaline earth metals and halogen family.
