Group 7 Flashcards
What is fluorines appearance in water and non polar solvent
Colourless
What is chlorines appearance in water and non polar solvent?
Very pale green solution
What is the appearance of all the halide ions?
White solid or colourless solution
What is the atomic radius going down group 7
Increases-extra shell of electrons
What is the natural state of bromine?
Orange liquid
What happens to the melting point as you descend group 7?
Increases-more energy needed to overcome the stronger Van Der Waals forces due to the increase of electrons
What is the natural state of chlorine?
Pale yellow gas
What is iodines appearance in water and non polar solvent
W-brown solution
NPS - purple solution
What happens to the electronegativity of the elements descending g7
Decreases-bigger atomic radius and more shielding between nucleus and outer shell. There’s a weaker attraction between nucleus and the bonded electrons
What is bromines appearance in water and non polar solvent?
Orange solution
What happens to the reactivity of group 7 going down?
Decreases- going down the group the atoms are larger with more shielding between nucleus and outershell electrons
Weaker attraction between nucleus and electron being gain
Which is the most powerful oxidising agents
Fluorine
What is the most powerful reducing agent?
Iodine
What is the natural state of iodine?
Black solid
What does fluorine displace?
Cl Br I
