Question

If the activity of halogens is stated as:Fluorine > Chlorine > Bromine > Iodine, determine if a reaction occurs and if so provide the products formed.

Cl₂ (g) + AlBr₃ (aq) →

Accepted Answer

if the activity of halogen has stated as flooring being greater than chlorine being greater than roaming and being greater than iodine, determine if a reaction occurs and if so, provide the products form. All right, so here they're having us compare basically the activities of the halogen. And they're telling us here that flooring has the highest activity so it can displace chlorine, bromine and iodine Chlorine Kim, displaced bromine and iodine and then bro mean can only displace iodine. If you look here at this question, we have C l two plus lbr three. We can see here that chlorine since it has a higher activity, it should be able to displace the growing here. So remember, aluminum is in group 38 So it's charges three plus chlorine is minus one since it's in group seven A. Remember when the numbers of your charges air different, we crisscross. So that means after chlorine has displaced bro mean we'll have a l. C. L three here a quiz based on Saudi ability rules. Plus think about this, bro means natural state, bro Mean is also die atomic just like whoring. But if you watch my videos on the elemental form of elements within the periodic table. You know that, bro mean doesn't naturally exists as a gas, but instead as a liquid. Now we just need to balance this out toe balance. It I'd have to put to here so that we have six. Chlorine is two times three. I put a three here. Now we have to aluminum. So I put a two here for aluminum. But then that Give me two times three for six bro meets. So put a three here. Now our equation is balanced. So remember, on our typical activity Siri's chart, we dont have place for the halogen. In this question, we do see the order. Now, though we see flooring, chlorine, bromine and then iodine. Looking at your periodic table, you'll see that it's written in this order basically telling us as we go up Group seven, the activities increase for the elegance. So just keep in mind this order when we're asked to ask questions on which halogen will replace another halogen
