Hey Mate Here Is Your Answer
Halogens are highly reactive and as such can be harmful or lethal to biological organisms in sufficient quantities. This high reactivity is due to the fact that the atoms are highly electronegative due to their high effective nuclear charge. They can gain an electron by reacting with atoms of other elements.
