Three halogens:
Fluorine, chlorine, bromine.

All of these have seven valance electrons.
When combine with hydrogen they form acids.
H₂ + Cl₂ → 2HCl
All of these are toxic in nature.
They are highly electronegative and most reactive elements.
When combine with metals they form salts such as sodium chloride, magnesium bromide.
2Na + Cl₂ → 2NaCl
2Na + Br₂ → 2NaBr
Mg + Br₂ → MgBr₂
Mg + Cl₂ → MgCl₂
