The Atomic Mass of iodine is less than the atomic mass of all elements with greater atomic number.

Iodine is a non metal element. Atomic mass number of it is 127.
They show that the periodic table isn't arranged on the basis of increasing atomic mass because iodine has a mass lesser than tellurium. Iodine has a mass of 126.90 and tellurium has a mass of 127.60.
It might be Iodine and Tellurium because Tellurium has a larger atomic weight than Iodine but Iodine has more similar properties with Fluorine and Chlorine so Mendeleev placed them that way to make more sense but at that point the elements were aranged in order of atomic mass. Now the periodic table is in order of it's atomic number rather than it's atomic mass so it all fits nicely.
Because the naturally occurring isotopes of tellurium have fewer neutrons than the naturally occurring isotopes of iodine.

Element 34, Selenium, has an atomic mass of about 78.96.
Iodine nuclei have one more Proton than Tellurium, but in general the Tellurium atoms have more neutrons, giving a higher average atomic mass. Elements often have isotopes, and their stated atomic masses are averages which look at the abundance of these isotopes. In a given sample of Iodine, 100% of it will be 127I, though the tiniest trace of 129I will exist. In a sample of Tellurium, 65% will be 128Te and 130Te. This makes Tellurium's average atomic mass a little higher than Iodine's.

In their most stable forms, Uranium has an atomic mass of 238 and plutonium has an atomic mass of 244, plutonium has a greater mass than that of Uranium.
I think your understanding is confused. Atomic No. of '6' indicates the position in the periodic table, the number of protons, and the number of electrons. Atomic Mass is a number ( equal to or greater than atomic no.), which is the the total of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom . So you atomic mass of '5' is incorrect as it is less than '6'. I think you mean 5 neutrons. If so the atomic mass is 6 + 5 = 11 This would be the isotopic element C-11 (Carbon eleven).
No halogen gas has a mass of under 15 atomic mass units. The closest is fluorine, at 19.0 atomic mass units.
That would be iodine with an atomic number of 53. The next group 17 element is astatine with atomic number 85.
Fluorine, at 19 atomic mass units, is the only halogen gas that fits that requirement.
