Halogens.
The Group VIIA nonmetals are known as the halogens. This group includes elements such as fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, and astatine. Halogens are highly reactive and can form compounds with metals to create salts.
Group VIIA is commonly known as the halogens. These elements include fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, and astatine. They are highly reactive nonmetals that form salts when they combine with metals.
The elements in group VIIA, also known as group 17, are called halogens. This group includes fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, and astatine. Halogens are highly reactive nonmetals.
Transition metals/nonmetals
Halogens, such as fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, and astatine, are located in Group 17 (VIIA) of the periodic table. They are highly reactive nonmetals.
An anion is a negatively charged ion; a non-metal! On the Periodic Table of Elements, they're in Groups IVA through VIIA. Much success ;D
They are called halogens. They are in the 17th period. They have 7 electrons in the outermost energy level.
Nonmetals
That's not a very valid question becase you could argue that all the elements in that particular group are important. There are at least 4 common ones there, which are carbon, silicon, lead, and tin.
No: Anions of nonmetals end in the suffix -ide, but no element name ends in this group of letters.
Another name for Group 17 (VIIA) Elements is Halogens.
No. group VIIA (or group 17) elements are halogens. group VIIIA (or group 18) elements are noble gases.
