Q

result of Cl with KI

A

colourless solution turns orange/brown
hexane turns purple

21
Q

result of Br with KI

A

turns dark orange
starch turns blue/black

22
Q

what should you add if you have difficulty interpreting results of Cl water and halides

A

1cm3 of organic solvent (hexane)

23
Q

reaction of halogens with cold alkali

A

2cm3 samples of each of the halogens in water
add a few drops of 0.4m NaOH
observe colour changes

24
Q

halogens in order of oxidising ability

A

least I2 Br2 Cl2 most

25
Q

why is Cl the most oxidising

A

Cl has the fewest electron shells with the least shielding and smallest radius
has the strongest ability to attract the electron from I or Br

26
Q

define disproportionation reaction

A

simultaneous oxidation and reduction of an atom of the same element in an ion or molecule

27
Q

reaction of halogens with cold alkali

A

2cm3 samples of each of the halogens in water
add a few drops of 0.4m NaOH
observe any colour changes

28
Q

observation of halogens on adding NaOH

A

turn colourless

29
Q

Cl2 + 2NaOH —>

A

NaCl + NaClO + H2O

(same for Br and I)

30
Q

3Cl2 + 6NaOH —>

A

5NaCl + NaClO3 + 3H2O

(same for Br and I)

31
Q

HCl + H2O —>

A

HCl + H+ + Cl-

32
Q

NH3 + HCl —>

A

NH4Cl

(same for I and Br)

33
Q

what does HCl gas appear as

A

steamy fumes

34
Q

which is the strongest reducing agent out of the halides

A

I-

35
Q

why is I- the strongest reducing agent

A

it loses electrons most easily

36
Q

reaction of concentrated H2SO4 with potassium halides

A

spatula of potassium halide in a test tube
add 2/3 drops of conc H2SO4
test the gases evolved with conc NH3 on a glass rod, acidified dichromate paper, damp blue litmus paper and bubbling through silver nitrate solution

37
Q

what does acidified dichromate paper test for

A

SO2

38
Q

what does damp blue litmus paper test for

A

acidic gas

41
Q

test for halide ions

A

1cm3 of halide solution
3 drops dilute nitric acid
5 drops silver nitrate solution
add dilute ammonia (mix well)
if no change add concentrated ammonia
