Consider the example below👁🗨
2.13🤔
The reactivity of Group 7 elements decreases as we move down the group.
❗️❕Further Explanation:
When moving down the group, the atoms get larger thus the outermost shell gets further from the nucleus.
As a result, the attraction between the nucleus and electrons gets weaker, so an electron is less easily gained.
2.14 and 2.15🤔
Experiment 1
Displacement Reaction of Chlorine and Potassium Bromide
2KBr(aq) + Cl2(g) → 2KCL(aq) + Br2(aq)
- More reactive chlorine displaces the less reactive bromine
- It is a redox reaction as bromide is being oxidized and chlorine is being reduced
Experiment 2
Displacement Reaction of Chlorine and Potassium Iodide
2KI(aq) + Cl2(g) → 2KCL(aq) + I2(aq)
- More reactive chlorine displaces the less reactive iodine
- It is a redox reaction as iodine is being oxidized and chlorine is being reduced
Experiment 3
Displacement Reaction of bromine and sodium bromide
- More reactive chlorine displaces the less reactive bromine
- It is a redox reaction as bromide is being oxidized and chlorine is being reduced
Lastly, here is a sample question🧐
The answer is B as only the reactions of I and III is possible
