Probably because it was first recognized in fluorspar or fluorite (which is calcium fluoride).
The word bromine comes from the Greek word bromos meaning "stench," which refers to bromine's strong, unpleasant odor.
Chlorine is called chlorine because it is from the greek word chloros which means "lime-green gas"
Yes. It is called chlorine burn.
CuCI is made out of calcium and chlorine . The compound is called calcium chlorine.
It is called chloride ion.
There is 3 measurements of chlorine in a pool or spa. Total chlorine, combined chlorine, and free available chlorine. Free available chlorine is the good chlorine that is active in the pool killings germs and algae. Combined chlorine is chlorine is basically chlorine that was once active but has killed germs or bacteria and is now inactive in the pool. Total chlorine is free available and combined chlorine added together. If your combined chlorine is higher than free available chlorine then the water needs to be shocked to eliminate the combined chlorine. But be careful here. If you don't reach what's called break point you will only add to the combined chlorine. There are products on the market which will only remove combined chlorine without effecting your free available chlorine if you are unsure about reaching breakpoint. Hope this helps.
halogens.

Yes. It is called chlorine burn.
They may by collectively called halides.But, hydrogen and chlorine make hydrochloric ACID, H + Bromine make hydrobromic ACID, sodium and chlorine make common salt and chlorine and chlorine make diatomic chlorine gas.

The ion formed by chlorine is the "chloride" ion
The name of the group 7 elements that chlorine is included in, are called Halogens.
IUPAC naming only applies to compounds. The IUPAC name for chlorine is chlorine. In nature chlorine exists as a diatomic compound Cl2 called dichlorine.
For any two or more atoms bondedtogether is a MOLECULE. Gaseous chlorine is a molecule because it contains TWO(2) atoms of chlorine; structurally (Cl - Cl).
