6 displacement of halogen from its halide solution
1. By :SuziShaf
REDOX REACTION
Displacement of halogens from halide solution
Halogens : element in group 17
(chlorine, Cl2 , bromine, Br2 , and iodine, I2 )
Halides : element of ion in group 17
(chloride ion, Cl- , bromide ion, Br- and iodide ion, I- )
Still remember ?????
When go down group 17,
REACTIVITY of halogen decrease.
Why …..? (answer)
So, the power of halogen as oxidizing agent also decrease when go
down the group.
This means halogen at higher position in group 17 can displace
halogen at lower position, from it halides solution.
Thus;
There are three reactions that can take place.
Can you state all these three processes?

Halogen colour in tetrachloromethane is usually use to
identify the type of halogen presence.
Observe the reaction below:

dissolve together but will form two layer. The upper
layer is water and below is tetrachloromethane layer.
Tips : look at the colour of the tetrachloromethane layer
to determine the halogen that presence.

Chlorine is more reactive than bromine, the strength
of oxidizing agent for chlorine is more stronger than bromine.
Thus chlorine will displace bromine from potassium bromide
solution. Orange colour in tetrachloromethane layer proved the
presence of bromine, Br2 in the mixture.
Chlorine is reduced to chloride ion.
Chlorine also act as oxidizing agent.
Half equation : Cl2 + 2e → 2Cl-
The oxidation number of chlorine is decreases from 0 to -1.

5. By :SuziShaf
1 molecule of chlorine gains 2 elctrons to form 2 chloride ions.
Thus, chlorine undergoes reduction process.
Bromide ion is oxidize to bromine.
Bromide ion also act as reducing agent.
Half equation : 2Br- → Br2 + 2e
The oxidation number for bromine is increases from -1 to 0.
2 bromide ions loses 2 electrons to become 1 bromine molecule
Bromide ions is undergoes oxidation
Total ionic equation :
Cl2 + 2Br- → 2Cl- + Br2
How this process is made?
Considered the following reaction;
Cl2 + 2KI → I2 + 2KCl

Chlorine is more reactive than iodine,
Thus chlorine will displace iodine from potassium iodide
solution.
The purple colour in tetrachloromethane layer proved
the present of iodine, I2 in the solution.

Bromine is more reactive than iodine, so the power of oxidizing
agent for chlorine is more stronger than iodine. By that, bromine
will displace iodine from it potassium iodide solution. The purple
colour in tetrachlorometane layer prove the present of iodine, I2 in
the solution.
