No, the R- represents a generic carbon group and the R group can be any size in length. X represents a halogen.

for example:

R-OH can be CH3CH2OH, (CH3)3COH, CH3CH=CH-OH <---There is a infinite amount of possibilities for the carbon group of which R stand for. However, the size of the R group doesn't matter the only thing that matters is that its a carbon to something bond.

Is bleach a halogen?

Bleach as a chemical substance is NOT an halogen. However, it contains in combination, the halogen 'chlorine'. The 'sharp clean ' smell you have with bleach is a few molecules of chlorine gas being released. It is chlorine gas that cleans and disinfects. In a fume cupboard, have a piece of litmus paper, be it red or blue etc., Allow it to come into contact with a puff of chlorine gas. It will go white/colourless'.
