Group 7, The halogens 

fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, astatine 

all have 7 electrons in the outer shell so they all have similar chemical properties 

the halogens exist as diatomic molecules, sharing one pair of electrons in a covalent bond gives both atoms a full outer shell 

as u go down group 7, the melting and boiling points increase

this means at room temp-

chlorine is a fairly reactive, poisonous, green gas

bromine is a poisonous red-brown liquid which gives off an orange
