Bubbles
,
pH charge
,
colourless
gas,
HBr
,

Which halide doesn't react with sulphuric acid?
Chloride
Rule for reacting halides with concentrated H2SO4
Power
of
reducing agent increases
,
H2SO4
becomes more
reduced
What is the difference between the iodide and bromide reaction?
Iodide releases purple fumes instead
of
brown
Which halide ions are displaced by chlorine water?
Bromide
and
iodide
Why does the reducing power of halides increase down the group?
Larger ions lose electrons more easily
, so
less attraction
,
distance increases
,
greater shielding
Chlorine and water form?
HCI
and
chloric acid
What is chloric acid?
Strong oxidising agent
,
kills bacteria via oxidation
,
bleach
,
What type of reaction is chlorine and water
Disproportion reaction
Pros of using Chlorine water treatment
Kills
bacteria
, safe to
drink
and
swim
, prevents
growth
of
algae
, reducing
bad smells
and
discolouration
Cons of using chlorine water treatment
Chlorine is
toxic
,
irritates
the
respiratory system
, causes
chemical burns
if
concentrated
, and reacts with
organic compounds
to form a
carcinogen
CI and NaOH gives
NaCIO
+ NaCI +
H2O
Use of NaOH and CI
Bleach
, its a
disproportional
reaction
Chemical name of active ingredient which is present in bleach
Sodium chlorate
What would happen to the universal indicator if you added it to chlorine water?
Paper
(red to white), but
solution
(red to colourless)
