they exist in all 3 states of matter at room temp.
they all tend to form salts
halogens are diatomic, meaning that they exist as molecules with two atoms
thats all I got
They're colored.
Their names typically end in "-ine."
They're nonmetals.
Chlorine shares the most characteristics with fluorine as they both belong to the same group on the periodic table (Group 17, also known as the halogens). They both have similar chemical properties such as being highly reactive and forming compounds easily.
No, halogens are not the basis for all fossil fuels. Fossil fuels primarily consist of hydrocarbons, which are compounds made of hydrogen and carbon. Halogens, such as chlorine, fluorine, bromine, and iodine, do not play a significant role in the formation of fossil fuels.
The halogens are not found naturally in the earth's crust as pure elements because of their extreme reactivity. Because the halogens are close to having completely filled electron shells, they will often react with other substances in order to gain an electron. As an especially noteworthy case, fluorine is the most reactive of the halogens (and elements in general), and will even react with glass. Therefore, the halogens are found naturally as compounds, not pure elements.
Halogens have high reactivity because they have a strong tendency to gain an electron to achieve a stable electron configuration. This reactivity decreases as you move down the group from fluorine to iodine.
These elements are typically called halogens, and they are found in Group 17 of the periodic table.
Bromine is a halogen. The Halogens are very reactive non-metals.
Halogens Apex ;)
The outer electron shells of halogens have seven electrons, making them one electron short of a full outer shell. This makes halogens highly reactive as they tend to gain an electron to achieve a stable electron configuration. Halogens are located in Group 17 of the periodic table.
Some characteristics of non-metals are that they are poor conductors of electricity and heat, brittle, and have high electronegativities. On the Periodic Table, examples of non-metals are nitrogen, carbon, the halogens, and sulfur.
Halogens are in Group 7
Halogens are not salts but they are chemical elements; halogens can form salts reacting with metals.
No, halogens are reactive however and can be dangerous.
Yes, halogens are extremely reactive.
Halogens are not like metals. Halogens are elements missing one electron for full valency.
halogens
Another name for Group 17 (VIIA) Elements is Halogens.
No, boron is not in the halogens group. It is located in Group 13 of the periodic table. The halogens are in Group 17.
