Best Answer

The five elements in the halogen family are:

F for fluorine

Cl for chlorine

Br for bromine

I for iodine

At for astatine

But in organic chemistry, halogens are generally represented using 'X' (except for astatine as it is radioactive and doesn't have much application in organic chemistry).
