Oxidation
All halogens are highly reactive non-metallic elements with similar chemical properties. They form diatomic molecules in their elemental state (F2, Cl2, Br2, I2) and have a tendency to gain one electron to achieve a full valence shell, resulting in a -1 oxidation state in their compounds. They exhibit increasing molecular size and decreasing reactivity down the group.
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.
Halogens!! :D its the most reactive nonmetal and has 7 valence electrons!
Halogens has a very high electronegativity.
Group 17 (known as Halogens)
Halogens naturally occur in the gaseous state. Examples of halogens are fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, and astatine.
-1
When halogens bind to more electropositive elements (compared it itself), they show -1 oxidation state. When halogens bind to more electronegative elements (compared it itself), they show +1 oxidation state.
The oxidation states of halogens can range from -1 to +7. Fluorine typically has an oxidation state of -1, while the other halogens (chlorine, bromine, iodine) can have oxidation states from -1 to +7 depending on the compound and bonding.
Halogens Apex ;)
Halogens are highly reactive elements that readily form compounds with other elements. Their high reactivity prevents them from existing in a free state in nature. Instead, halogens like fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and iodine are commonly found in nature as part of compounds such as salts or minerals.
Halogens are in Group 7
All halogens are highly reactive non-metallic elements with similar chemical properties.

Halogens are not salts but they are chemical elements; halogens can form salts reacting with metals.
Yes, halogens like chlorine, bromine, and iodine can conduct electricity when in a molten state because they are able to dissociate into ions which can carry electric charge. However, fluorine is an exception as it does not conduct electricity in any state.
No, halogens are reactive however and can be dangerous.
Yes, halogens are extremely reactive.
