Question

Why the halogens have little tendency to lose the
electrons ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

The ionization energy of the halogen family is higher than the group-16 elements, hence there is little tendency to lose electrons. The high ionization energy is due to increased nuclear charge. The ionization energy for fluorine is highest since the electrons are strongly held in its small atom.
