More About halogens
Halogens were found a long time ago. They are part of a big list called the periodic table. This table shows all the atoms we know. Each halogen has its own job.
We use halogens every day. They help keep our water clean. They also help us stay healthy. Some are in our food!
In the future, we may find more halogens. Scientists are always looking for new things. Who knows what we will find next?
