Group 7

?
What form group 7 molecules exist in?
Diatomic molecules
1 of 26
Why do group 7 molecules have high boiling points?
Many electrons create strong van de waals forces meaning more energy is required to break them
2 of 26
Why does electronegativity decrease going down the group?
Atomic radius and shielding
3 of 26
Are group 7 molecules oxidising or reducing agents?
Oxidising agents
4 of 26
What do group 7 molecules dissolve in?
Water and non-polar solvents (cyclohexane)
5 of 26
What colour is formed when chlorine is dissolved in water and cyclohexane?
Pale green
6 of 26
What colour is formed when bromine is dissolved in water and cyclohexane?
Orange
7 of 26
What colour is formed when iodine is dissolved in water and cyclohexane?
Brown in water, violet in cyclohexane
8 of 26
What is a halide?
A halogen which has gained electrons to form negatively charged ions
9 of 26
Why is reactivity increased when going down halides?
Larger halides can lose electrons more easily due to less attraction to nucleus, therefore they have increased reducing ability
10 of 26
What do sodium halides react with?
Concentrated sulfuric acid
11 of 26
What happens when sodium chloride reacts with concentrated sulfuric acid?
Acidic gas given off, hydrogen halide given off
12 of 26
What is the contents of the test tube?
White solid
13 of 26
What products are formed from this reaction?
Sodium hydrogen sulphate, hydrogen chloride gas
14 of 26
What happens when sodium bromide reacts with concentrated sulfuric acid?
Bromide ions reduce H2SO4 to create a 2nd exothermic reaction, white fumes, chocking acidic gas, hydrogen halide gas, acidic gas
15 of 26
What is the contents of the test tube?
White solid, orange liquid
16 of 26
What products are formed from this reaction?
Sodium hydrogen sulphate, hydrogen bromide gas, bromine, sulfur dioxide
17 of 26
What happens when sodium bromide reacts with concentrated sulfuric acid?
Iodide ions further reduce, acidic gas, purple vapour, egg smell, hydrogen halide gas
18 of 26
What is the contents of the test tube?
Black solid, yellow solid
19 of 26
What products are formed from this reaction?
Sodium hydrogen sulphate, hydrogen iodide, iodine, sulfur, hydrogen sulfide
20 of 26
How do you test for halide ions?
Add nitric acid to remove carbonates, add silver nitrate to form coloured precipitate, add dilute ammonia, add concentrated ammonia if not dissolved
21 of 26
How do we know it's chloride?
Forms white precipitate, dissolves in dilute ammonia
22 of 26
How do we know it's bromide?
Cream precipitate, dissolves in concentrated ammonia
23 of 26
How do we know it's iodide?
Yellow precipitate, doesn't dissolve
24 of 26
A reaction where an element is oxidised and reduced is called a
Disproportionation reaction
25 of 26
What can chlorine make in disproportionation reactions?
Water treatment and bleach
