Explain trend in bond enthalpy down Group 7 |
Cl2 to I2 - decreases down the group as atomic radius increases -> greater shielding -> weaker attraction between the bonding electrons and the nucleus.
F2 does not fit the trend - atoms are so close together that the lone bonding pair of electrons for each atom causes repulsion |
|
State and explain trend in boiling points down Group 7 |
Boiling points increases down the group Size of diatomic molecule increases -> bigger Van der Waals forces -> more energy needed to overcome VdW forces |
|
State and explain trend in electronegativity down Group 7 |
Decreases down the group. Bonding electrons closer to the nucleus -> less shielding -> nucleus attracts bonding pair of electrons more strongly
So element has greater electronegativity |
|
State the trend in appearance in Group 7 |
Colour of the elements gets darker down the group |
