D.
Both fluorine and iodine are solids at room temperature.
E.
Fluorine is solid and iodine is liquid at room temperature.
Answer will be A , See as the London Dispersion Force is more in Iodine which means force of attraction is Hight , it forms solid and Fluorine due to weak attraction force is a Gas at room temperature

as atomic size increases down the group
then force of attraction on electron decrease from nucleus
fluorine: 9
iodine:53 atomic number
then force of attraction on electron decrease from nucleus
fluorine: 9
