Group 7 Flashcards
what are group 7 elements known as
halogens
are group 7 poisonous or not poisononus
poisonous
what type of elements are group 7 elements
diatomic molecules
melting point trend of halogens
melting point increases as you go down the group
why does melting point increase down the group
inter molecular forcesincreases as the atoms become larger so more energy is needed to overcome
what happens to state of matter as you go down the group
it changes and goes from solids to gases
what happens to the colors of elements as you go down the group
they become darker
what do halogens react with to form ionic compounds/ metal halide salts
some metals
rate of reaction trend down the group
rate of reaction decreases
what do halogens react with to form simple molecular structures
non-metals
when do halogen displacement reaction occur
when a more reaction halogen displaces a less reactive halogen
what happens when adding chlorine solution to colorless potassium bromide/ iodide
- a displacement reaction
- solution:
orange when bromine is formed
brown when iodine is formed
what happens when chlorine is mixed with bromine
displaces it as its more reactive
CI2 + 2KBr -> 2KCl + bR2
chlorine + potassium bromide -> potassium chloride+ bromine
is bromine more reactive than iodine
yes
bromine + potassium iodide -> x
potassium bromide + iodine
