group 7
elements are the halogens

all have 7 electrons in their outer shell


most reactive of the non metals ,
non found naturally in element form
°
Fluorine and chlorine are the most abundant ,
bromine occurs in smaller quantities ,


iodine and astatine be artificially produced it short tired
is scarce can
only as is


and radioactive .





All halogen elements are diatomic molecules .
For example , Fz and Bra
which are linked through a
single coolest bond .
between a pair of atoms .





Halogen atoms achieve
stability by gaining an electron →
forming
a halide ion or
sharing an electron with another non metal

CHEMICAL PROPERTIES

group of reactive elements , they tend to remove electrons from other elements
so that they can
complete their outer shell e.g .

Na has lost electron - been oxidised
-

U has gained an electron -

oxidising agent .




-
elements at the top of group 7 are the most reactive and strongest
oxidising agents this decreases down the

the extra electron is weaker .
Therefore fluorine higher up in the
group ,

gains
electrons more readily ,
to become a
negative ion
,
than chlorine
-

Fluorine is the most reactive member of the halogens and the strongest
oxidising agent .

is added to potassium iodide there is a reaction and

the solution turns brown .
Iodine is produced .
