Physical properties of the halogensPhysical properties of the halogens oneone
The halogens have similar chemical properties because
they all have seven electrons in their outer shell. Their
colour darkens as you descend the group from fluorine
a pale yellow gas to iodine a dark purple solid. Their
melting and boiling points also rise as you descend the
group.
The halogens
Notes

Found in group VII of the periodic table,
all the halogens have seven electrons in
their outermost electron shell. They are
therefore just one short of a full outer
shell. This is what makes them reactive
with other elements.

The group VII elements, the halogens are well known for their antiseptic properties. Although
they are very toxic to humans at high doses, small quantities of the halogens or their ions (F- Cl-
Br- & I-) have an antiseptic effect, destroying many m_______. Our drinking water is nowchlorinated, making sure that we have clean w______ to drink. Our toothpaste contains fluoride
to help reduce the amount of bacteria in your mouth. Before surgery, iodine water is applied to
our skin to make sure that it is free from microbes.How else can we sterilise surfaces ?
Antiseptic properties of group VII halogens: Word bank: microbes water
All the halogens are potentially harmful substances. Fluorine and chlorine in particular are highly toxic. It is highlydangerous to ingest or breathe halogen vapour or their solutions. They are used to kill bacteria therefore sterilising
water for domestic supply or in swimming pools. Chlorine compounds are used in disinfectants like 'dettol' or 'TCP'.
Iodine water is also used as a disinfectant prior to surgery or to sterilise dirty drinking water.

Fluorine is the most reactive and dangerous of the halogens. It
was used during the first world war to make mustard gas which
when inhaled would destroy your lungs within minutes. Fluorine
forms an extremely stable non-stick compound called teflon.
Developed by NASA scientists, it now coats millions of frying
pans and artificial implants like hip replacement joints.

Fluorine is a pale yellow
diatomic gas. Two atoms of
fluorine covalently bond, sharing
two electrons. The formula offluorine is F2. Fluorine is the

Fire extinguishesDiatomic liquid
Bromine is a very toxic brown liquid, but it does have
several uses. Bromine toxicity is used to kill pests that
destroy crops. Bromine is also used in fire extinguishers. It
works by reacting with the oxygen, therefore preventing
further combustion. Bromine is also added to plastics so that
bacteria and moulds do not rot or decompose them.

liquid. Two atoms of bromine

Bromine is found in a wide range of chemicals including pesticides, which when sprayed oncrops kills pests like locusts. Halon f______ extinguishers contain bromine which extinguishes
small fires that cannot be put out using powder or water. Small amounts of bromine are added
to plastics to prevent their decomposition by bacteria. This is useful for plastics that are used
over long periods of time.Find out about other uses of bromine and its compounds ?

Iodine is a dark purple diatomic solid. Two atoms of iodine covalently bond sharing two

in certain seaweeds and in salt water. Iodine is used by the thyroid gland to make theh_________ thyroxin. Humans require small amounts of iodine in their diets. If iodine is
lacking in the diet then goitre, a disease of the thyroid gland can develop. Iodine is also
used to sterilise skin prior to surgical operations. Why dont surgeons use bleach to

ThyroidDiatomic solid
Iodine is used by the human thyroid gland in order to produce
thyroxine, an essential hormone. If your diet is poor in iodine,
you may develop goitre which is a medical condition where your
thyroid becomes enlarged. Iodine is also used to sterilise your
skin prior to major surgery. It kills the bacteria on your skin.
Explain why halogens, like iodine have an antiseptic effect ?

Reactions of the halogensReactions of the halogensThe halogens can either gain electrons to form negative ions during the formation of ionic
compounds or they can form a single covalent bond with other non metals during the formation
of covalent compounds. They do this to become like n______ gases, having a full outer shell.The halogens can react with many metal and non metal elements forming a number of different
ionic and covalent compounds, for example s_________ chloride (NaCl) and carbon tetra
chlorine (CCl4)Draw the electronic configuration of a single atom of fluorine and iodine ?
Formation of ionic and covalent compounds: Word bank: noble sodium
During the formation of the covalent
hydrochloric acid, both atoms form a
single covalent bond. This sharing of
electrons fills the outer shell of bothhydrogen and chlorine atoms making
them both stable.
During the formation of sodium chloride
(NaCl), a single electron from the outer shell of
sodium is transferred to the outer shell of a
single chlorine atom. Both ions (Na+ & Cl-) arenow stable having the same electronic
configuration as a noble gas.

Displacement of halogens from their compoundsDisplacement of halogens from their compoundsThe halogens become less reactive as you descend the group, for example reactions with other
elements involving fluorine and chlorine occur without heating. Reactions with bromine only occur if
heated and reactions involving iodine proceed slowly with strong heating. The reason why fluorine isthe most r_________ halogen is because its the smallest atom and it is the best at capturing or
gaining an electron from other e_________ during reactions. What's the rule for the groupImetals ?

Chlorine and its compounds are used in huge quantities around the World. Chlorine is
extracted from sodium chloride using e____________. During electrolysis the sodium ion
regains its single electron forming the metal: sodium. Conversely, the chloride ion loses itselectron to form molecular chlorine gas which is then captured at the anode.

Chloride (Cl-) ions when molten are
free to move. The chloride ions
being negatively charged travel to
the positive anode. Chloride ions
(Cl-) lose their electron and formdiatomic chlorine (Cl2.) Chlorine is
then used as a gas.
Sodium (Na+) ions when
molten are free to move. The
sodium ions being positively

cathode and regain the electronlost. Molten sodium is formed
at the cathode.
