GCSE Halogens

Suitable for years 10 & 11

AB
In the periodic tablehalogens are in group VII
Symbol for chlorine isCl
symbol for bromine isBr
I is the symbol foriodine
Chlorine physical state isgas
bromine physical state isliquid
iodine physical state issolid
chlorine colour ispale green
bromine colour isdark red
iodine colour isgrey
fluorine colour should bepale yellow
fluorine physical state should begas
Astatine colour should bedarker grey than iodine
astatine physical state should besolid
Are they metals or non metals?non metals
In group VII so electrons in outer shell7
form ions with metals charge is1-
chlorine forms ions with metals formula isCl(-)
bromine ion isBr(-)
iodine ion isI(-)
they all exist as diatomic molecules formula of chlorine isCl2 (subscript 2)
When Na (2,8,1) reacts with Cl (2,8,7)1 e transferred from Na to outer shell of Cl
With other non metals they form covalent compoundscovalent compounds
covalent compounds are non conductors of electricity because they exist asuncharged molecules
when chlorine combines with H(1e)1 pair of e is shared between them
Cl (2,8,7) & O (2,6)2 pairs of e shared between them
C (2,4) and Cl (2,8,7)4 pairs of e shared between them
Reactivity increasesup the group
fluorine is themost reactive halogen
Cl2 added to KBr (aq)Br2 is displaced
Cl2 added to KI (aq)I2 is displaced
Cl2 & KBr (aq) Br2 is displaced becausechlorine more reactive than bromine
Cl2 & KI(aq) I2 is displaced becausechlorine more reactive than iodineine
Cl2 added to KF(aq)no reaction
Cl2 & KF(aq) no reaction becausefluorine more reactive than chlorine
Cl2 & KBr products areKCl & Br2 (subscript 2)
Cl2 & KI(aq) products areKCl & I2 (subscript 2)
I2 & KAtproducts are KI & At2 becauseiodine more reactive than astatine
formula of sodium astatide isNaAt
Astatide ion would beAt(-)
