Halogens such as fluorine or chlorine are HIGHLY reactive; they always undergo chemical reactions with other elements to form compounds. It's almost impossible to find pure samples of any halogen gas.

Halogens are only found in nature as what?

Halogens are found in nature primarily as salts, such as sodium chloride (table salt) or potassium iodide. They are highly reactive nonmetals that readily form ionic bonds with metals to create mineral salts.


Why can't the halogen group be found free in nature?

Sodium is a highly reactive element. When it is in its pure form, it reacts with elements and moisture in the air almost immediately. It is more stable in compounds, so this is how it is found in nature.


Which element is only found in nature as a compound?

Sodium


What do the halogens not react with?

Helium is the only perfectly inert element, although there are several other inert elements which can be made to react with fluorine only with great difficulty, by the use of high temperature and pressure.
