![]() ![]() When halogens dissolve in mineral oil, they appear colored! Meanwhile, the Since halogens are also non-polar, they will haveĪ high affinity for dissolving in the non-polar mineral oil. Mineral oil is composed of long, non-polar hydrocarbon Halogens dissolve in mineral oil much more easily than Therefore, we need toįind a way to differentiate the halogens in the reaction in order to determine Unfortunately, halogensĭissolved in water appear very similar in color. If no reaction has occurred, you will see theĬolor of halogen X 2 (reactant) in your test tube. Reaction has occurred, you will see the color of halogen Y 2 To a test tube, then observing the color. Lab, you will be adding prepared solutions of the halogens and halides in water Some cases the formation of a precipitate to assess that a redox reaction has occurred. cloudy) of a solution.Įxperiment, we will be using qualitative analysis to observe color changes and in In qualitative analysis, changes in a reaction mixture are observedĪnd that information is used to determine whether or not a reaction occurred. Those data are used to make precise interpretations about the reaction. In quantitativeĪnalysis, the amounts of reactants and products are carefully measured and Reaction may be analyzed quantitatively or qualitatively. ![]() Qualitative Analysis to determine if a reaction has occurred Likewise, you willīe able to arrange the three halides in order of their relative reactivity as In order of their relative reactivity as oxidizing agents. Successful completion of the exercise, you will be able to arrange the three halogens Conversely, Y¯ is being oxidized it is called the reducingĪgent because it is causing X 2 to be reduced. This reaction, X 2 is being reduced it is called the oxidizingĪgent because it is taking electrons away from Y¯, causing Y¯ to be The oxidation half reaction of Y¯ would be: Viewed as a half reaction the reduction of Reactions are best understood when written in terms of two half reactions. Redox reactions are best understood when written in terms of two half reactions.Ī Redox Reaction can be divided into two half reactions: ![]() Reaction of halogen X 2with halide Y¯ would be as F, Cl, Br, or I) and 'Y¯' denotes a halide ion. Reactions involve the exchange of electrons. Will be exploring the reactivity of the Group 17 elements as a reducing agent the halogens Cl, Br, and I) in reduction - oxidation reactions (referred Relative reactivities of three of the Group 17 elements This experiment is designed to allow you to determine the These periodic properties often influence theĬhemical reactivities of an atom. Ionization energy, electronegativity, and electron affinity also vary in similar manners (see the sections in your textbook). The video below provides an overview of the halogens.Figure 1: Trends in bonding atomic radii for periods 1-5 Halogen – One of the 5 non-metals in group 7 of the periodic table.ĭisplacement reaction – A reaction in which a more reactive element takes the place of a less reactive element in a compound. Halogens become less reactive as you go down group 7 in the periodic table, because the outer electron shell gets further away from the attraction of the nucleus, and so an electron is gained less easily.Ī less reactive halogen will be displaced by a more reactive one from an aqueous solution of its metal halide.Ĭhlorine + potassium bromide → potassium chloride + bromine Iodine (State of matter at room temperature) Solid (Colour) Grey/ black They form hydrogen halides, which dissolve in water, forming acidic solutions.įluorine (State of matter at room temperature) Gas (Colour) YellowĬhlorine (State of matter at room temperature) Gas (Colour) Greenīromine (State of matter at room temperature) Liquid (Colour) Red/ orange They form molecular compounds with non-metals. They react with metals to form ionic compounds where the halide ion has a charge of -1. They consist of molecules made up of two atoms (diatomic molecules). The halogens have the following properties: Group 7 of the periodic table is home to the Halogens. ![]()
