Q

What will happen if an elemental halide is added to a halide solution?

Why?

A

The heavier halide will be displaced

Because the lighter halide has a greater preference to be the halide ion because it is electronegative

32
Q

What is the reaction of water with chlorine useful for?

A

Water treatment to kill bacteria

33
Q

What happens to the chlorate ion in sunlight?

A

Decompose to produce HCl + O2

34
Q

Risks of using Chlorine for water treatment

A

Cl(g) is toxic

Cl(l) on the skin or eyes causes burns

Chlorine will chlorinate trace organic compounds in water, man of these chlorinated hydrocarbons are carcinogenic

35
Q

Benefits of water treatment using Chlorine

A

Kills harmful bacteria

Increased cancer risk is small, however a choler epidemic would kill many

Forced mass medication prevents thousands of deaths every year

36
Q

What happens when Cl2 is added to sodium hydroxide?

A

You get:

Sodium chlorate
& Sodium Chloride
