Fluorine F,Chlorine Cl, Bromine Br, Iodine I, Astatine At.Group 7th a elements.Same number of valence electrons (7).Reactivity decrease.Size increase as no. of shells increase.
These elements are known as halogens as they form salts.The word 'halo' means salt and 'gen' means forming and hence salt forms are known as halogens.
Physical properties-
1.Physical state.
2.Conductivity.
3.Electronegativity.
Chemical properties-
1.Reactivity.
2.Oxidizing property.
3.Hydride formation.
