Which halogen is a gas at room temperature and is pale yellow in color?

A.

Chlorine (Cl)

B.

Fluorine (F)

C.

Iodine (I)

D.

Bromine (Br)

Correct answer is B

Fluorine is a halogen that is a gas at room temperature and is pale yellow in color. Halogens are a group in the periodic table consisting of five chemically related elements: fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), iodine (I), and astatine (At). Among these, only Fluorine and Chlorine are gases at room temperature, but Chlorine is greenish-yellow, not pale yellow.
