The halogens are a group of non-metals that have seven electrons in their outer shell, making them highly reactive as they need only one more electron to fill their outer shell. The document describes the properties and uses of four halogens: fluorine is used in toothpaste as fluoride; chlorine is used as a disinfectant and bleach; bromine is used in camera film; and iodine can be used as an antiseptic or test for starch when dissolved in water.

The Halogens
The Halogens The halogens are a group of non- metals in the periodic table They all have seven electrons in their outer shell this makes them all really reactive; they only have to gain one more electron to fill their outer shell. Unlike Group One the elements get less reactive as you go down the group
Fluorine (F) 2,7 Name: Fluorine Symbol: F Atomic Number: 9 Atomic Mass: 18.998404 amu Melting Point: -219.62 °C Boiling Point: -188.14 °C Number of Protons/Electrons: 9 Number of Neutrons: 10 Colour: Greenish
Chlorine (Cl) 2,8,7 Name: Chlorine Symbol: Cl Atomic Number: 17 Atomic Mass: 35.4527 amu Melting Point: -100.98 °C Boiling Point: -34.6 °C Number of Protons/Electrons: 17 Number of Neutrons: 18 Colour: green
Bromine (Br) 2,8,18,7 Name: Bromine Symbol: Br Atomic Number: 35 Atomic Mass: 79.904 amu Melting Point: -7.2 °C Boiling Point: 58.78 °C Number of Protons/Electrons: 35 Number of Neutrons: 45 Colour: Red
Iodine (I) 2,8,18,18,7 Name: Iodine Symbol: I Atomic Number: 53 Atomic Mass: 126.90447 amu Melting Point: 113.5 °C Boiling Point: 184.0 °C Number of Protons/Electrons: 53 Number of Neutrons: 74 Colour: blackish
Astatine (At) 2,8,18,32,18,7 Name: Astatine Symbol: At Atomic Number: 85 Atomic Mass: (210.0) amu Melting Point: 302.0 °C Boiling Point: 337.0 °C Number of Protons/Electrons: 85 Number of Neutrons: 125 Colour: Unknown
Uses of Fluorine The main use of fluorine is toothpaste even though it isn’t as fluorine itself but instead as fluoride , a compound of fluorine.
Uses of Chlorine Chlorine is used mostly to kill bacteria or as a bleach. Chlorine bleaches a piece of universal indicator paper white.
Uses of Bromine Bromine is one of the main ingredients in camera films (as silver bromide).
Uses of Iodine When dissolved in water, iodine can be used as a strong antiseptic or as a test for starch.
