Test: Group 17 Elements: Halogens - Question 6
Save

What are the products formed when chlorine is passed through aqueous hypo solution?

Detailed Solution: Question 6

Test: Group 17 Elements: Halogens - Question 7
Save

Which one of the following reactions does not occur?

Detailed Solution: Question 7

With progressive increase in atomic number, the reduction potential of halogens decreases, thus oxidising power also decreases. Hence, a halogen with lower atomic number will oxidise the halide ion of higher atomic number and therefore, will liberate them from their salt solution.
Hence, the reaction Cl2 + 2F− ⟶ 2Cl− + F2 is not possible.
