43
Q

what happens when chlorine is added (bubbled) through a solution of potassium iodide?
(worked example of chlorine with iodide)

A

The aqueous solution becomes brown due to the formation of iodine

44
Q

What is the ionic equation of chlorine with iodide?

A

Q

what happens to iodide when it reacts with chlorine?

A

It is oxidised to iodine

46
Q

what happens to chlorine when it reacts with iodide?

A

It is reduced to chloride

47
Q

why is chlorine oxidising agent in the reaction of chlorine with iodide?

A

It allows the iodide to be oxidised, itself is reduced

48
Q

what happens when bromine is added to a solution of potassium iodide?

A

-The iodide ion has been oxidised to iodine (forming a brown solution) bromine is being reduced to bromide

49
Q

what happens when chlorine is added to a solution of potassium bromide?

A

-the aqueous solution becomes orange as bromine is formed

50
Q

what is the reaction between chlorine with bromide show?

A

Chlorine is a better oxidising agent than bromine

51
Q

what does the reactions of bromine and chlorine with iodine show?

A
