Question

Find the odd one out:- Fluorine, Sulphur, Bromine, Iodine.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Odd one is Sulphur.

Because fluorine, bromine and iodine are elements of group 17 i.e halogens whereas Sulphur belong to group 16.

Answer 2

The odd one from the given examples is Sulphur.

• All of the elements in the question are classified according to which periodic table group they belong to and how related they are.
• According to this criterion, only three of the four members here belong to the same group, while one belongs to a distinct group.
• Fluorine, bromine, and iodine are nonmetallic elements that all have seven electrons in their outer shell and belong to group seventeen. They're all members of the halogen family.
• Sulphur is an exception since it is in group sixteen and contains six electrons in its outer shell. It belongs to the oxygen family as the second member.
• Thus, sulphur stands out among the other elements.
