Halogen displacement reactions Flashcards
What is a displacement reaction
Is when a more reactive element displaces the less reactive element from a compound - they halogens gain electrons
Equation for halogen displacement reactions… chlorine and potassium bromide
Chlorine + Potassium bromide —> Bromine + potassium chloride
