Iodine is a solid because it has a larger mass number than fluorine. (Iodine=126.9 where as fluoine=19). This means that it will have more induced dipole-induced dipole attractions, compared to flourine. So more attractions need to be overcome in iodine than flourine, meaning there needs to be more energy to overcome the attractive forces. So there will be enough energy at room temperature to overcome the forces of attraction between flourine, making it a gas in nature. However there is not enough energy at room temperature to overcome the attractive forces between iodine, making it a solid at room temperature.
Hope that answered your question.
Iodine is a solid when at 25 degrees centigrade (room temperature)
Fluorine is a gas at room temperature.
At room temperature iodine is a solid halogen.
No, not all halogens are gases. Fluorine and chlorine are gases at room temperature, while bromine is a liquid and iodine is a solid.
Iodine is a dark purple solid at room temperature.
No, not all halogens are gases at room temperature. Fluorine and chlorine are gases at room temperature, bromine is a liquid, and iodine is a solid.
None of them are Fluorine, Chlorine and Bromine are all gases at room temperature. Iodine and Astatine are both solid at room temperature.
Halogens like fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and iodine exist in different states of matter at room temperature: fluorine and chlorine are gases, bromine is a liquid, and iodine is a solid.

Bromine is liquid at room temperature.Its symbol is Br.It has 7 valence electrons.
Fluorine (F2), chlorine (Cl2), bromine (Br2), and iodine (I2) are halogens that exist as gases at room temperature and pressure. At standard conditions, fluorine and chlorine are diatomic gases, while bromine is a diatomic liquid and iodine is a solid.
