Experiment 4.2 Chemistry Form 4 ⇒ [ FRESH ]

I’ve written two versions: one for (most common) and one for Group 17 . Choose the one that fits your syllabus. Option 1: Experiment 4.2 – Reactivity of Group 1 Elements (Alkali Metals) 🧪 Chemistry Form 4: Experiment 4.2 – How Reactive Are Group 1 Elements? Lithium, Sodium & Potassium – let’s see them in action!

| Halogen \ Halide | KCl | KBr | KI | |----------------|-----|-----|-----| | Chlorine water | No reaction | Turns orange (Br₂) | Turns brown (I₂) | | Bromine water | No reaction | No reaction | Turns brown (I₂) | | Iodine water | No reaction | No reaction | No reaction | experiment 4.2 chemistry form 4

Wear goggles & use small pieces only. Potassium reacts violently! I’ve written two versions: one for (most common)

Cl₂(aq) + 2KBr(aq) → 2KCl(aq) + Br₂(aq) Lithium, Sodium & Potassium – let’s see them in action

To investigate the reactivity of Group 1 elements (Li, Na, K) with water & oxygen.

Halogens are toxic & corrosive – work in a fume hood or well-ventilated area.
