What is Group 7 Halogens | Questions?

"The elements in Group 7, known for being reactive non-metals that form salts."

Question 1

What happens to the boiling point as you go down Group 7?

Question 2

Which halogen is a red-brown liquid at room temperature?

Question 3

A more reactive halogen will ____ a less reactive halogen from its salt solution.

Group 7 Trends

Reactivity decreases as you go down the group.

Melting and boiling points increase down the group.

More reactive halogens displace less reactive ones from salts.

Exam Tip

Exam Tip: Halogens gain one electron to form -1 halide ions.
