The halogens (/ ˈ h æ l ə dʒ ə n, ˈ h eɪ-,-l oʊ-,-ˌ dʒ ɛ n / [1] [2] [3]) are a group in the periodic table consisting of six chemically related elements: fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), iodine (I), and the radioactive elements astatine (At) and tennessine (Ts), though some authors [4] would exclude tennessine as its chemistry is unknown and is theoretically expected to ...
[55] [56] [57] Bromine is the tenth most abundant element in seawater. [58] The main sources of bromine production are Israel and Jordan. [59] The element is liberated by halogen exchange, using chlorine gas to oxidise Br − to Br 2. This is then removed with a blast of steam or air, and is then condensed and purified. [60]
The halogens form many binary, diamagnetic interhalogen compounds with stoichiometries XY, XY 3, XY 5, and XY 7 (where X is heavier than Y), and bromine is no exception. Bromine forms a monofluoride and monochloride, as well as a trifluoride and pentafluoride. Some cationic and anionic derivatives are also characterised, such as BrF − 2, BrCl ...
In chemistry, an interhalogen compound is a molecule which contains two or more different halogen atoms (fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, or astatine) and no atoms of elements from any other group. Most interhalogen compounds known are binary (composed of only two distinct elements).
There are currently seven complete periods in the periodic table, comprising the 118 known elements. Any new elements will be placed into an eighth period; see extended periodic table. The elements are colour-coded below by their block: red for the s-block, yellow for the p-block, blue for the d-block, and green for the f-block.
A halogen lamp (also called tungsten halogen, quartz-halogen, and quartz iodine lamp) is an incandescent lamp consisting of a tungsten filament sealed in a compact transparent envelope that is filled with a mixture of an inert gas and a small amount of a halogen, such as iodine or bromine. The combination of the halogen gas and the tungsten ...
The carboxylic acid is first converted to its silver salt, which is then oxidized with halogen: R−COO − Ag + + Br 2 → R−Br + CO 2 + Ag + Br − CH 3 −COO − Ag + + Br 2 → CH 3 −Br + CO 2 + Ag + Br −. Many organometallic compounds react with halogens to give the organic halide: RM + X 2 → RX + MX CH 3 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 Li + Cl 2 ...
At slightly elevated temperatures, the halogens bromine (Br 2) and iodine (I 2) also form diatomic gases. [3] All halogens have been observed as diatomic molecules, except for astatine and tennessine, which are uncertain. Other elements form diatomic molecules when evaporated, but these diatomic species repolymerize when cooled.
