Brief Explanations
Halogens (Group 17) are non - metals. As we move down Group 17, the reactivity of halogens decreases. Fluorine is the most reactive halogen, and it is the most reactive non - metal in general. This is because of its small atomic size and high electronegativity. Chlorine, bromine, and iodine are also reactive non - metals, but less so than fluorine.
