Q

Describe how the ionic radius compared to the atomic radius in group 7

A

The halide ion (X-) has the same number of protons as the halogen atom (X) but more electrons so the attraction is weaker.

Q

Describe the trend in the ability of the halogens to act as oxidising agents down group 7

A

Decreases

More shielding due to an increase in the number of shells

Therefore the ability to gain electrons is less as the nuclear attraction decreases.
