For Examiner’s Use The table below shows the properties of some halogens. halogen colour state at room temperature melting point / °C fl uorine yellow –220 chlorine light green gas bromine brownish-red liquid –7 iodine grey-black solid +114 What is the trend in the colour of the halogens down the Group? Predict the state of fl uorine at room temperature. Predict the melting point of chlorine. The reactivity of three different halogens was compared by reacting them with solutions of sodium halides. The results are shown in the table below. reaction mixture observations astatine + sodium iodide colour of reaction mixture remains unchanged bromine + sodium iodide mixture turns dark brown chlorine + sodium bromide mixture turns brownish-red Use the results in the table to suggest the order of reactivity of astatine, bromine, chlorine and iodine. most reactive least reactive Predict whether bromine will react with sodium chloride solution. Explain your answer. For Examiner’s Use Chlorine reacts with excess cold dilute sodium hydroxide. The products of the reaction are sodium chloride, sodium chlorate(and water. The formula of sodium chlorate(is NaCl O. Complete the equation for this reaction. Cl 2 + NaOH → NaCl + NaCl O + Explain why chlorine is used in water purifi cation. Impure water contains particles of minerals and remains of dead plants and animals. One stage in water purifi cation is the removal of these particles by fi ltration. The diagram below shows a water fi lter. water in small particles of sand Explain how this water fi lter works.
