false; it reacts so that they acquire the electron structure of a noble gas.
The halogen family consists of the elements fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, and astatine. These elements are highly reactive and tend to form salts with metals. They have 7 electrons in their outer shell, making them eager to gain an extra electron to achieve a stable electron configuration.
All halogen family elements need to gain 1 electron to attain a noble gas configuration. This is because noble gases have a full outer shell of electrons, which is the most stable configuration in terms of electron arrangement.
Halogen family members, or elements in group 17, have 7 valence electrons.
Fluorine The Halogen Family of elements is made up of the elements Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine and Astatine. Neon is one of the Inert or Noble gases. Lithium is a member of the Alkali Metal group of elements. Bismuth is in the same group of elements as Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Arsenic and Tin.neon
Halogens are in the group 17 of the periodic table of Mendeleev.
Halogen is the family of salt producing elements.
The halogen family consists of the elements fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, and astatine. These elements are highly reactive and tend to form salts with metals. They have 7 electrons in their outer shell, making them eager to gain an extra electron to achieve a stable electron configuration.
Chlorine belongs to the halogen family of elements.
Yes, halogen atoms typically gain one electron to achieve a stable electron configuration. This results in a full outer electron shell, similar to the noble gases.
False; it reacts so that they acquire the electron structure of a noble gas.
All halogen family elements need to gain 1 electron to attain a noble gas configuration. This is because noble gases have a full outer shell of electrons, which is the most stable configuration in terms of electron arrangement.
Halogen family members, or elements in group 17, have 7 valence electrons.
they all lack one electron in their outer shell, so they're each one atomic number from a noble gas
Fluorine The Halogen Family of elements is made up of the elements Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine and Astatine. Neon is one of the Inert or Noble gases. Lithium is a member of the Alkali Metal group of elements. Bismuth is in the same group of elements as Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Arsenic and Tin.neon
Halogen
Yes, halogen family is considered highly reactive. It easily gains 1 electron to form anion.
The elements in the halogen family are in group 7 and thus have 7 valence electrons. They are very reactive because the want an additional electron to complete the octet. They can get this additional electron by reacting with another element willing to donate that electron. A perfect example is an element from group 1 or 2 (alkali or alkali earth) which wants to donate an electron.
