Why Chlorine is
added in
swimming pool
• Chlorine is added to the
water to kill germs. When
it is added to a
swimming pool, it forms
a weak acid called
hypochlorous acid that
kills bacteria like
salmonella and E. coli, as
well as germs that cause
viruses such as diarrhea
and swimmer's ear.
Write the name of group 7 elements from the
periodic table
• The group 7 elements contains 5 elements and they are :
• Fluorine
• Chlorine
• Bromine
• Iodine
• Astatine
Group 7 elements are non – metals. Suggest
their physical properties
• They do not conduct electricity.
• They are poor conductors of heat.
• They have low melting and boiling point

Valence electrons
• How many electrons does fluorine
and chlorine atom have?
Ionic bond
• A bond formed
between metal and non
metal by losing or
gaining an electron
Ionic bond –
metal halides
• When a metal join with
non metal it gains or
loses electron to form a
compound. Halogens
lose one electron and
form an ionic bond
with a metal to form
metal halides
Metal + halogens – salt
• Example
• Sodium + chlorine ------ sodium chloride
• Potassium + fluorine ----- Potassium fluoride
• Iron + bromine ------- Iron bromide
Task 1:Arrange the group 1 elements with their respective colours
symbols and state of matter
• Task 2:Compare group 7 elements with the property of group 1 elements
and group 2 elements

fluorine and group 2 elements with fluorine. Write the name of the
compound. Predict the chemical formula if group 1 element or group 2
elements react with group 7 elements.

The Group 7 Elements
Guess what?
Fluorine bonds with fluorine
Fluorine bonds with Lithium
Fluorine bonds with hydrogen.
What is the difference between each bonding?
Learning Objectives
• To differentiate between ionic and covalent bonding of halogens
• To draw the bonding between fluorine and fluorine atom
• To write a chemical formula and write the name of the compound of ionic
and covalent bonding compounds of halogens
Ionic bond of
halogens with
group 1 element
• Sodium +
chlorine
• Sodium
chloride
Lithium + Fluorine----- Lithium Fluoride

Fluorine molecule
Task 1: Sort the given pieces of compounds as
ionic bond and covalent bond.
•Task 2: Draw any two ionic bond between
group 1 elements and halogens.
•Task 3: Draw a Venn diagram representing
the similarities and differences between Ionic
bond and covalent bond
Melting and Boiling Point
• The group 7 element have low melting and boiling points compared to most
metals. This is because they exist as molecules.
• A strong force holds the two atoms of the molecule together. The forces
between a molecules and its neighbours are weak. It is easy to separate the
molecules of chlorine in the liquid state to form a gas.
• The table in the previous page shows a trend in melting and boiling points.
They increase from top to bottom of the group. This is because the atoms
(and molecules) of the elements get bigger.
Covalent Bonding
of group 7
elements
• Group 7 elements
donot exist as single
atoms they are always
found as molecules or
compounds.
• Ex F2 or Cl2
Review
• Group 7 elements are also called as halogens
• It has relatively low melting and boiling point
• Group 7 elements are one of the diatomic molecules and have
intermolecular attraction between the atoms.
• They react with metals to form salt.
• Only group in periodic table which have different states is halogens with
different colours on burning
What do you mean by diatomic molecules?
Other than group 7 elements name some other
diatomic molecules
• Diatomic molecules consist of two atoms bonded together. In contrast,
monatomic elements consist of single atoms (e.g., Ar, He). Many compounds
are diatomic, such as HCl, NaCl, and KBr. Diatomic compounds consist of
two different elements. There are seven pure elements that form diatomic
molecules.
