In case TS is too lazy to even click, i copied part of wiki page
The halogens or halogen elements are a series of nonmetal elements from Group 17 IUPAC Style (formerly: VII, VIIA) of the periodic table, comprising fluorine, (F);chlorine, (Cl); bromine, (Br); iodine, (I); and astatine, (At). The undiscovered element 117, temporarily named ununseptium, may also be a halogen.
The term 'halogen' originates from 18th century scientific French nomenclature based on adaptations of Greek roots: hals (sea) or halas (salt), and gen- (to generate)—referring to elements which produce a salt in union with a metal.
