group 17 elements properties?
. all non metals
. diatomic molecules at room temperature
. single covalent bond betwee. two atoms in each molecule
F, Cl, Br, I (–>)
. atomic radius increases
. melting and boiling point increase
. volatility decreases
. reactivity decreases
. electronegativity decreases
. strength as oxidising agent decreases
. bond energy decreases
. thermal stability decreases
. increasing effectiveness as reducing agents
. ease to oxidise hydrogen halides increases
what is volatility
the ease with which a substance evaporates
g17 have low values (simple molecular structures, weak id-id)
F colour
pale yellow gas
Cl colour
green/yellow gas
bromine colour
orange/brown liquid
iodine colour
. grey/black liquid
. purple gas
reactions of halogens
. halogens + metals (h is oxidising agent) IONIC BOND
. halogens + non metals (h is oxidising agent) COVALENT BOND
vigorous
a reaction that has a rapid rate of reaction
more reactive halogens displace less reactive ones in a reaction
