Respuesta :

The elements of the group VII are named as halogens. These are all non-metallic elements and include Fluorine, Chlorine , Bromine, Iodine and Astatine. 
The inert gases are the group next to the halogens. So the correct answer to this question is Option B. 
Halogens are elements from group VII

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Halogens are the elements which are present in group VII of the periodic table. These are fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine and astatine.

Elements present in period VII are known as Actinide series.

Noble gases are the gases which are present in group 8 of the periodic table. These are helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, and radon. They are also known as inert gases.

Metals which actively participate in a chemical reaction or react actively are known as active metals. For example, lithium, sodium etc are active metals.

Therefore, we can conclude that the halogen elements are all from group VII.
