Answer:

One difference between Group 7 of the modern periodic table and Group 7 in Mendeleev's periodic table is the placement of the elements.

In Mendeleev's periodic table, Group 7 consisted of manganese (Mn), technetium (Tc), and rhenium (Re). In the modern periodic table, Group 7 consists of the halogens: fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), iodine (I), and astatine (At).

The halogens are a group of highly reactive nonmetals, while the elements in Group 7 of Mendeleev's periodic table were not all nonmetals and did not share the same chemical properties as the halogens.

Hope this helps!
