Halogens belong to the nonmetals. It is in the middle top block of the Periodic Table. The other nonmetals are the noble gasses.
The alkaline earth metals belong to group 2A elements. The alkali metals belong to group 1A elements. The halogens belong to group 7A elements. The noble gases belong to group 8A elements.
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.
The elements of the 1st GROUP of the periodic table are called alkali metals. The elements of the 17th GROUP of the periodic table are called halogens. Alkali metals are soft metals whereas halogens are non-metals.
Group 7 elements are known as "halogens".
Iodine belongs in the halogen family.

7A, or the older 17 block. Fluorine, chlorine, bromine and iodine. -------------- You might also be asking what larger classification the halogens belong to: nonmetals. Please see the link.
They belong to different families but HALOGENS family consists of diatomic molecular elements.
Noble gases belong to Group 18, halogens belong to Group 17, and the elements of life (carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, and sulfur) belong to various groups.
Elements which have their valency electrons in the p sub shell belong to this. Elements of groups 13,14,15,16,17,18 are in p block.
The alkaline earth metals belong to group 2A elements. The alkali metals belong to group 1A elements. The halogens belong to group 7A elements. The noble gases belong to group 8A elements.
halogens react to form halides
halogens are located in 17th group of the periodic table or 2nd group from extreme right.
Halogens belong to group 17. The elements are fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), iodine (I), astatine (At).
The halogens have seven valence electrons. The halogens are F, Cl, Br, I, and At. Fluorine
halogens & noble gases
The halogens have 5 electrons in the p sublevel.
