The Halogens: by Tom AND Chris

The document discusses the halogens, which are a group of non-metals in the periodic table. The halogens all have seven electrons in their outer shell, making them highly reactive as they only need one more electron to fill their outer shell. Unlike group one elements, the halogens decrease in reactivity down the group. The document then provides details on the properties and common uses of each halogen element: fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, and astatine. It concludes by thanking the reader and providing information on where the powerpoint was obtained from.

The Halogens

By Tom

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

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.
