Yes they are - they are all toxic and corrosive.

∙ 9y agoYes, most halogens are incredibly dangerous to humans. Halogens can bind to your cells and inhibit the absorption of oxygen into your body.

∙ 9y agoHalogens are dangerous some times. They are harmful for skin. Some of them are gases.
Wiki User
∙ 9y agoYes, the uncombined halogens are dangerous. they are all reactive. Iodine is the safest to handle in the laboratory as it is solid, but even so it is toxic.

What element in the 3rd period forms minus 1 ion?
Chlorine, the halogen in period 3.
Is it true when elements chemically combined they form compounds that have properties that are similar to those of the uncombined elements?
Well, let's see . . . -- Sodium is a poisonous, corrosive metal, that's a waxy solid at room temperature. -- Chlorine is a poisonous halogen that's a gas at room temperature. When sodium and chlorine chemically combine, they form sodium chloride, which is table salt. -- Hydrogen is a gas at room temperature, and forms an explosive mixture with air. -- Oxygen is a gas at room temperature, we breathe it, and many thousands of other substances will burn in it. When hydrogen and oxygen chemically combine, they form dihydrogen oxide, which is water. Nope. Don't think so.
What is the bond If atom X forms a diatomic molecule with itself?
Diatomic bonds are covalent bonds between two of the same atoms. These atoms are the ones that end with -genElements that form diatomic molecules:HydrogenOxygenFlourine*Chlorine*Bromine*Iodine*Astatine**note that these elements are in the halogen group
What kind of elements forms after cation bonding?
metals
Does technetium combine with other elements to form molecules?
technetium forms with other elements to make compounds
Why are the halogen elements so dangerous in their uncombined forms?
They are dangerous because in their uncombined forms they are highly reactive. Hope this helped ^,..,^
Are the elements in the compound salt dangerous?
The elements which make up table salt, sodium and chlorine, are dangerous in their elemental forms. However, their ions (which are present in table salt) are much less harmful.
What are comparative forms of dangerous?
more dangerous
What kind of bond does a halogen and an alkaline earth metal make?
alkaline earth metal forms a +2 cation and halogen forms a -1 anion alkaline earth metal is a metal and halogens are non metals therefore the bond between them is ionic

Are Forms of Energy Made of Elements?
No.
What are some dangerous forms of static electricity?
Lightning is a dangerous form of static electricity.
What are forms in a database?
Forms are html elements or if you are doing desktop based applications then some in-built elements of the desktop programming language. Database store form data but have nothing to do with forms
