What is displacement?

A more reactive element displaces a less reactive element from a solution of a salt

2
New cards

What happens with Cl reacts with Cl?

No reaction

3
New cards

What happens when Cl reacts with Br?

Turns orange / yellow

4
New cards

What happens when Cl reacts with I?

Turns red / brown

5
New cards

What reactions give no reaction?

Br being added to Cl or Br

6
New cards

What happens when Br is added to I?

Turns red / brown

7
New cards

What does a redox reaction mean?

One species gains electrons (reduced) while another species loses electrons (oxidised)

8
New cards

What can fluorine do?

Displace all halogens

9
New cards

Why can fluorine displace all halogens?

It is the most electronegative element -> Pulls electrons towards itself + has small radius so more effective nuclear charge
