  • Reducing agent
    What type of agent are group 2?
  • Redox reaction. Group 2 metal is oxidised
    Group 2 reaction with oxygen
  • An alkaline hydroxide is formed
    Group 2 reaction with water
  • Increases, so reactions become more vigorous
    How does reactivity change down group 2?
  • Atomic radius and shielding effect increase, so nuclear attraction decreases
    Explain the trend in reactivity down group 2
  • Form a salt and hydrogen
    Group 2 and dilute acids
  • Indigestion remedies to neutralise excess hydrochloric or stomach acid
    Uses of group 2 in medicine
  • Neutralise acidic soil
    Uses of group 2 in agriculture
  • Increases down the group so the solutions become more alkaline
    Solubility of group 2 hydroxides
  • Group 7 molecules or atoms
    Halogen
  • Negative ions formed by group 7
    Halide
  • Oxidising
    What type of agent are group 7?
  • Non-polar solvents dissolve non-polar molecules
    Why are halogens more soluble in non-polar solvents than water?
  • More electrons form stronger IDD forces in-between molecules
    Why does boiling point increase down group 7?
  • Atomic radius and shielding increases, so weaker nuclear attraction to capture an electron from another species.
    Why does reactivity decrease down group 7?
  • Decreases
    How does reactivity and oxidising strength change down group 7?
  • Precipitate dissolves in dilute ammonia
    How can chloride ions be identified?
  • White
    What colour precipitate do chloride ions form?
  • Precipitate dissolves in concentrated ammonia
    How can bromide ions be identified?
  • Precipitate is insoluble in concentrated ammonia
    How can iodide ions be identified?
  • Cream
    What colour precipitate do bromide ions form?
  • Yellow
    What colour precipitate do iodide ions form?
  • Chlorine is added to drinking water to kill bacteria
    Chlorine and water
  • Chlorine is both oxidised and reduced
    Chlorine and water reaction
  • Reacting cold dilute sodium hydroxide with chlorine
    How can household bleach be made?
  • The oxidation and reduction of the same element in a redox reaction
    Disproportionation
  • To purify water
    Why is chlorine added to drinking water?
  • Pale green
    What precipitate does chlorine form in an organic solvent?
  • Orange
    What precipitate does bromine form in an organic solvent?
  • Violet
    What precipitate does iodine form in an organic solvent?
  • The trend in properties of elements across a group
    Periodicity
  • Pale green
    Aqueous chlorine
  • Brown
    Aqueous bromine/iodine
  • Pale green (g)
    Chlorine RT
  • Orange (l)
    Bromine RT
  • Grey (s)
    Iodine RT
