Chemistry Flashcards
Group 7 properties Reactivity Melting point Boiling point Electronegativity
Less reactive High melting point Higher boiling point Electronegativity decreases (astract pair of electrons)
Halogen order and colours
Fluorine - yellow gas
Chlorine - dense green gas
Bromine- red/brown volatile liquid
Iodine- dark grey crystalline solid or purple vapour
What happens when more reactive halogen reacts with a less reactive halogen salt?
Ir displaces it
Higher up group displaces
What is volatility?
How easily a liquid evaporates
What is a mixture?
When a solid(solute) and a liquid (solvent) are added together and bonds between solvent break and solute mixes with liquid =solution
What is a solution?
A mixture of solute and solvent that does not separate out
What is a solute?
Substance being dissolved
What is the solvent?
The liquid it’s dissolveing into
What is soluble?
Means it will dissolve
What is the solubility?
How much it will dissolve
Nail varnish solubility in water?
Insoluble, attraction between nail varnish molecules is stronger than that between it and water and vice versa
Nail varnish in acetone?
Soluble (nail varnish remover) stronger atteactoon between nail varnish and acetone
How can you remove a metal from an ore?
Reduction by carbon (if less reactive)
Electrolysis
Displacement (other metal is more reactive)
What is electrophillic addition?
Double bond is attacked by electrophiles (positive ions or polar molecules)
Conditions for polymerisation?
Pressure
Catalyst
Temp and pressure effect polymer formed
What is non biodegradable?
Won’t rot
Alcohols react with sodium?
To give alkoxides
Uses of alcohols?
In cells to dissolve fats etc
Perfume
Clean paint brushes
Fuel
Carboxylic acid functional group?
COOH
