They only need 1 electron to gain a full outer shell as the Halogens are Group VII. They are very similar to the Group I metals, which, in retrospect, need to lose/give away 1 electron to achieve the same goal. This is typically why they are so reactive.
halogens
Halogens are all non-metals, they are all very reactive, and they are all colorful.
No. More reactive halogens will replace less reactive ones in a compound. This is because a more reactive halogen is more stable in a compound relative to a less reactive one, while a less reactive halogen is relatively more stable in its elemental form.
Halogens are generally more reactive than actinides. Halogens are a group of elements known for their high reactivity due to their ability to easily gain an electron and form negative ions. Actinides, on the other hand, are a series of radioactive elements that tend to be less reactive overall.
The Halogens are most reactive non-metals. They have the most tendency to accept electrons in their respective periods. The Halogen family comprises of Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine and Astatine
Yes, halogens are extremely reactive.
fluorine is the most reactive
because to be stable they need 8 atoms in outer energy level halogens need one so are highly reactive. alkali need 7 so are highly reactive( not as highly as halogens)

No, halogens are reactive however and can be dangerous.
Group 17 (known as Halogens)
Halogens among halogens fluorine is most reactive
The most reactive family of nonmetals is the halogen family.
Yes. fluorine is most reactive among all halogens as it has the highest electronegativity. Also, Fluorine has an incomplete outer shell that is closer to the nucleus so it is easier to attract an electron; this also makes fluorine the most reactive.
halogens
halogens.
The Halogens are the most reactive non-metals. However, their reactivity decreases as you go down the group. Most reactive Fluorine>Chlorine>Bromine>Iodine>Astatine Least reactive. However, Astatine is not fully characterised because it is radio-active, and consequently is not found in open(school) labs.
