The halogens are five non-metallic elements found in group 17 of the periodic table. The term "halogen" means "salt-former" and compounds containing halogens are called "salts". All halogens have 7 electrons in their outer shells, giving them an oxidation number of -1.

The name "halogen" means "salt producing". When halogens tract with metals they produces a wide range of salts. the group of halogens is the only periodic table group that contains element in all three main state of matter at standard temperature and pressure. These elements produces acid when bonded with hydrogen. These are the middle halogens that are often used as disinfectents . The basic reason is that they reacts with metals and forms salt.
