Group 7 Flashcards
(10 cards)
HAlogen in room temp
Flurine = pale yellow gas
Chlorine = pale green gas
bromine = red brown liquid
Iodine = balck-gray solid
Electronegetivity
decreases down the group
- due to inc in inner shielding and stomic radius
- shared ele pair expereince less nuc att
Boiling point
increases down the group
as go dwon halogen molecule have
- more mass
- greater size and surface area
- more electrons
IMF bet diatomic molecules ( van der waals) = more stronger = need more energy to overcome these forces
Redox reaction
- gain electron = becomes halide ion (-1)
redox = reaction involves transfer of electron = halogen = oxidising agent
Oxidising agent
- oxidises other substants and gets reduced itself (accepts electron)
trend of redox agent
- dec as go down the group
I2 +Na = 2NAI
Br2+2NaI= 2NaBr + I2
stronger oxidisng agent takes over from less powerful = displacement reaction
reactivity of flurine
- really reactive with water
- other displacement reaxtion can be done in aq solution
redox and iodine
- iodine = less able to attract electrons from other atom = easily gets reduced - weaker oxidising agent
weaker att bet nucleus and outer ele can easily be taken out = strong reducing agent
acid and base reaction
in all Sodium (flurine, chlorine, bromine and iodine )
produces NaHSO4 + H(element)
redox equation
only NaBr and NaI
NABr = SO2 k+ 2H2O + BRs
