Question

why fluorine has a lower melting point than chlorine
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Fluorine is the most abundant halogen in the earth along with chlorine. ... It has a low melting point and boiling point, the lowest of the halogens. This is because the instantaneous dipole-induced dipole bonds are weak due to F2 having less electrons than any other halogen molecules. It is a pale yellow gas.
