Halogens Flashcards
What letter often represents a halogen
X
What outer shell configurations do all group 7 have
P5
What state do all natural group 7 elements exists as
Diatomic molecules
Single cov bond
Covalent radius trend down group 7
Increases
More electrons
More electron shells
Take up more space
Ionisation energy trend going down group 7
Decreases
Outer electron further from nucleus
Less ESA
Easier to remove
Electron affinity trend down group 7
Decreases
Expect F (lower than Cl)
Ionic radius down group trend group 7
Increases
Electronegativity trend down group 7
Decreases
I same as C (C-I basically non-polar)
F2 state, appearance room temp, aqueous solutions, dissolved hydrocarbon solvent
Pale yellow gas
Virtuallly colourless
Virtually colourless
Cl2 state, appearance room temp, aqueous solutions, dissolved hydrocarbon solvent
Green gas, virtually colourless, pale yellow
Br2 state, appearance room temp, aqueous solutions, dissolved hydrocarbon solvent
Red/brown liquid, yellow, orange
I2 state, appearance room temp, aqueous solutions, dissolved hydrocarbon solvent
Grey metal looking solid, orange/brown, purple
Group 7 solubility
Non-polar molecules
High solubility in no-polar solvents
Limited solubility in water
Bubble Cl2 gas through water
Makes chlorine water
Mixture of dissolved Cl2 and disproportionation between Cl2 and H2O
NaHOCl (aq)
Bleach
