  • Fluorine has the smallest atomic size among the halogens. As a result, the nuclear attraction on the furthest electrons is greatest.

  • Because of its great propensity to attract electrons and the small size of its atoms, it has high chemical activity.

  • Among the halogens, fluorine is the most reactive.
