INTRODUCTION

This Powerpoint show is one of several produced to help students understand selected GCSE Chemistry topics. It is based on the requirements of the AQA specification but is suitable for other examination boards.

Individual students may use the material at home for revision purposes and it can also prove useful for classroom teaching with an interactive white board.

Additional Powerpoints, and the full range of AS and A2 Chemistry topics, are available from the KNOCKHARDY WEBSITE at...

HALOGENS GET LESS REACTIVE AS THE GROUP IS DESCENDED

THIS DECREASE IN REACTIVITY DOWN THE GROUP CAN BE DEMONSTRATED USING DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS...

A DISPLACEMENT REACTION IS WHERE ONE SPECIES TAKES THE PLACE OF ANOTHER IN A COMPOUND.

THIS SHOWS THAT A MORE REACTIVE HALOGEN WILL DISPLACEA LESS REACTIVE ONE FROM AN AQUEOUSSOLUTION OF ITS SALT

HOWEVER, THIS REACTION DOES NOT TAKE PLACE

BROMINE + SODIUM CHLORIDE CHLORINE + SODIUM BROMIDE

(Bromine is below chlorine in the Group so is less reactive)

THE CHLORINE ATOM PULLS AN ELECTRON OUT OF THE OUTER SHELL OF THE BROMIDE ION – THE CHLORINE ATOM BECOMES A CHLORIDE ION AND THE BROMIDE ION BECOMES A BROMINE ATOM.

BECAUSE BROMINE ATOMS ARE LARGER THAN CHLORINE ATOMS, IT IS EASIER TO PULL ONE OF THEIR OUTER SHELL ELECTRONS OUT.

CHLORINE NOW HAS THE OUTER SHELL ELECTRONIC CONFIGURATION OF A NOBLE GAS.
