different Halogens have different properties such as flourine: has an extremely low melting point of the top of my head it's somewhere around -249000 degrees centigrade unlike bromine which has a higher melting point flourine's colour is a green and grey

∙ 12y agoThe word Halogens is derrived from a greek word...Halo=salts and gens =former..
1-so halogens is that class of elements belonging to the Periodic Table which form salts..
2-All the halogens require only one electron to complete their octet and duplet in case of helium...
3-All halogens upon losing an electron form halides such as Flouride chloride...
4-halogens form stable ionic compound with alkali metals

∙ 10y agoThe halogens (group 17, or 7-A on the periodic table), share the chemical property of being the most reactive of the non-metals. This is caused by their 7 valence electrons, and the fact that gaining 1 more electron to satisfy the octet rule is relatively easy (hence, their reactivity.) The halogens are also diatomic, joined to one of their own kind by a single covalent bond. The halogens include the gases fluorine (F2) and chlorine (Cl2), the liquid bromine (Br2), and the solid iodine (I2). The fact that their state of matter changes from liquid to solid going down the group is a function of the VanderWaals forces at work within the diatomic molecule.

Do elements that have some properties of metals and some properties of non metals are called halogens?
No, they are not.
Which element will have similar properties to chlorine?
Fluorine or Bromine have similar properties to chlorine because both are halogens.
What do halogens iodine and chlorine have in common?
Halogens are very reactive nonmetals because their atoms need to gain only one electron to have a complete outer level. The atoms of halogens combine readily with other atoms, especially metals, to gain that missing electron. The reaction of a halogen with a metal makes a salt, such as sodium chloride. Both chlorine and iodine are used as disinfectants. Chlorine is used to treat water. Iodine mixed with alcohol is used in hospitals.Although the chemical properties of the halogens are similar, the physical properties are quite different,
What element are like choline in the periodic table?
I am guessing Choline was a typo, if you meant chlorine, then all of the halogens have similar chemical properties
Why do elements fluorine and iodine have similar chemical properties?
Florine and iodine fall under a class of compounds called halogens. There are currently 5 known halogens to man :-FlorineChlorineBromineIodine,andAstatine.They exhibit similar properties because they have a deficiency of 1 electron in its outermost shell making them highly electronegative. During reactions involving metals they have the tendency to bleach metals i.e. bond themselves with metals via ionic bonds which becomes covalent in higher periods. Iodine is highly covalent because it can react with other halogens forming compunds like IF or IF7.
Do the Physical and chemical properties of halogens compare that of noble gases?
No the properties are different and they belong to two different groups
What periodic table group has similar chemical properties but different physical properties?
Group 17, the halogens have similar chemical properties. However, at standart temperature and pressure, two are gases, one is a liquid and two are solids.
Which properties do the halogens have in common?
All halogens are very reactive chemical elements anf form anions.
How are halogens and noble gases alike?
they have similar properties
Do elements that have some properties of metals and some properties of non metals are called halogens?
No, they are not.
Which elements are both alkali metals and halogens?
No element is a member of both the halogens and the alkali metals. Hydrogen shares some properties of the two groups, but belongs to neither. It is instead in a group all its own.
What are the common properties of noble gases and halogens?
they dont have any common properties except that when halogens gain one electron, they achieve the electronic configuration of the nearest noble gas.
How do the physical and chemical properties of the halogens comparew with those of the inert gases?
Halogens are very reactive both physically & chemically than that of inert gases ,as halogens have valency 1.
In a periodic table which properties are most similar to fluorine?
Halogens have similar properties. All of them form anion.
Which element will have similar properties to chlorine?
Fluorine or Bromine have similar properties to chlorine because both are halogens.
What property do halogens share?
They share many properties, but one is that they all have 7 valence electrons.
What properties do halogens have?
Halogens have many properties but the most important is the high reactivity and high electonegativity.let example of flourine it is so much high reactive that even if it react in dark still it will creat an explosion.
