List the first 4 halogens as they appear in the periodic table as they appear. What does your answer suggest about their relative reactivity?
Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, IodineIf you write the electronic structure to start, F = 2,7, Cl = 2, 8, 7, Br = 2, 8, 8, 7, I = 2, 8, 8, 8, 7. This shows that they all have 7 outer electrons so we can tell th...
