    Which of the following halogens has some metallic character?

    A) F                                             

    B) Cl                           

    C) Br                           

    D)        I

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Halogens are non-metallic because of very high ionisation energy. The non-metallic character decreases down the group, therefore iodine shows some metallic character and forms positive ions such as \[{{\text{I}}^{\text{+}}}\] and \[{{\text{I}}^{3+}}.\]
