41.1 Characteristic Properties of the Halogens (SB p.83)
Check Point 41-1 (c) The colour of halogens darkens on going down the group. Explain why. Answer (c) Going down the halogen, the sizes of the halogen atoms increase, and the radiation of lower frequency is absorbed. For instance, since fluorine atom has a smaller size, it tends to absorb the radiation of relatively high frequency (i.e. blue light), hence fluorine appears yellow. Atoms of other halogens have larger sizes and they absorb radiation of lower frequency. For example, iodine absorbs the radiation of relatively low frequency (i.e. yellow light), hence iodine appears violet. Back

41.2 Variation in Properties of the Halogens (SB p.86)
Check Point 41-2A (a) Explain the term “electron affinity”. Describe the trend of variation in electron affinity of the halogens. Answer
230
41.2 Variation in Properties of the Halogens (SB p.86)
(a) Electron affinity is the enthalpy change when one mole of electrons is added to one mole of atoms or ions in the gaseous state. The electron affinity increases from fluorine to chlorine and then decreases from chlorine to astatine. The general decrease in electron affinity is due to the increases in atomic size and number of electron shells down the group. This leads to a decrease in effective nuclear charge. Therefore, the tendency of the nuclei of halogen atoms to attract additional electrons decreases. On the other hand, fluorine has an abnormally low electron affinity. It is because fluorine atom has a very small atomic size. Energy is required to overcome the repulsion between the additional electron and the electrons present in the electron shell. The electron affinity of fluorine is therefore lower than expected.

232
41.2 Variation in Properties of the Halogens (SB p.90)
Let's Think 2 Why does fluorine always behave differently from chlorine, bromine and iodine? Answer Fluorine cannot expand its octet as there are no low-lying empty d orbitals available, and the energy required to promote electrons into the third quantum shell is very high. Since fluorine is the most electronegative element and there is only one unpaired p electron available for bonding, its oxidation state is limited to –1 when bonded with other elements. Back
233
41.2 Variation in Properties of the Halogens (SB p.91)
Check Point 41-2B (a) Explain why halogens are strong oxidizing agents. Answer (a) It is because all halogens have one electron short of the octet electronic configuration, they tend to attract an additional electron to complete the octet. They have high electronegativity values and highly negative electron affinity values. Halogens are thus strong oxidizing agents.

41.3 Comparative Study of the Reactions of Halide Ions (SB p.93)
Check Point 41-3A (a) Is bromine and iodine more soluble in water or 1,1,1-trichloroethane? Explain your answer. Answer (a) Both bromine and iodine are more soluble in 1,1,1-trichloroethane than in water. It is because both bromine and iodine are non polar molecules, and water is a much polar solvent than 1,1,1-trichloroethane.

Check Point 41-3A (b) Describe a simple way to increase the solubility of iodine in water. Answer (b) The solubility of iodine in water can be increased by adding potassium iodide solution.

41.3 Comparative Study of the Reactions of Halide Ions (SB p.100)
Check Point 41-4 (a) For each of the following pairs, which is a stronger acid? Explain your answers. (i) Dilute hydrochloric acid and dilute hydrofluoric acid Answer
242
41.3 Comparative Study of the Reactions of Halide Ions (SB p.100)
(a) (i) Dilute hydrochloric acid is a stronger acid than dilute hydrofluoric acid, as hydrochloric acid has a much larger Ka value than hydrofluoric acid. HCl(aq) + H2O(l) H3O+(aq) + Cl–(aq) Ka = 1 × 107 mol dm–3 HF(l) + H2O(l) H3O+(aq) + F–(aq) Ka = 7 × 10–4 mol dm–3 The small Ka value of hydrofluoric acid indicates that only a small amount of hydrogen fluoride molecules is ionized. Most of hydrogen fluoride molecules still exist in the undissociated form. The large Ka value of hydrochloric acid indicates that almost all hydrogen chloride molecules are ionized in water. This can be explained by the presence of extensive intermolecular hydrogen bonds among hydrogen fluoride molecules.

41.3 Comparative Study of the Reactions of Halide Ions (SB p.100)
Check Point 41-4 (a) For each of the following pairs, which is a stronger acid? Explain your answers. (ii) Concentrated hydrochloric acid and concentrated hydrofluoric acid Answer
244
41.3 Comparative Study of the Reactions of Halide Ions (SB p.100)
(a) (ii) Concentrated hydrofluoric acid is a stronger acid than concentrated hydrochloric acid. Hydrogen fluoride is soluble in water. In a dilute solution of hydrogen fluoride, it behaves only as a weak acid. HF(l) + H2O(l) H3O+(aq) + F–(aq) (1) Ka = 7 × 10–4 mol dm–3 However, in a more concentrated solution of hydrogen fluoride, another equilibrium is established with the fluoride ion forming the complex ion [HF2]–. F–(aq) + HF(l) [HF2]–(aq) …… (2) K = 5.1 dm3 mol–1 The equilibrium of reaction (2) shifts to the right as the concentration of hydrogen fluoride increases. With the consumption of fluoride ions in reaction (2), the equilibrium of reaction (1) also shifts to the right. The acid strength of hydrogen fluoride is therefore enhanced. Hence, concentrated hydrofluoric acid is effectively a strong acid.
