halogen element Any of the six nonmetallic elements that constitute Group 17 (Group VIIa) of the periodic table. The halogen elements are fluorine (F)‚ chlorine (Cl)‚ bromine (Br)‚ iodine (I)‚ astatine (At)‚ and element 117 (temporarily named ununseptium [Uus]). They were given the name halogen‚ from the Greek roots hal- (“salt”) and -gen (“to produce”)‚ because they all produce sodium salts of similar properties‚ of which sodium chloride—table salt‚ or halite—is best known. Because of their great

Grouping elements with similar chemical properties together Date: 4.10.2012 Objectives The objective of this experiment is to experimentally investigate which elements show similar chemical properties. Chemical principle Calcium is a chemical element with symbol Ca and atomic number 20. Calcium is a dull gray‚ silver solid under standard conditions. Calcium atoms have an electron configuration of (2‚ 8‚ 8‚ 2) and 2 outermost shell electrons. Calcium is in group 2 and period 4 of the

is finally tested to determine whether or not it has been dehydrated. The three tests used were infrared spectroscopy‚ Bromine chemical test and Bayer’s chemical test. The infrared spectroscopy showed a large narrow peak at 3062.12(cm-1) and 3020.71(cm-1) which indicates that there is a double bond present. To assure the results were correct the chemical tests were done. The Bromine test was found to be positive for cyclohexene. The OH group was removed from the cyclohexanol and replaced with a double

Acetylene gas was used for the selective reactivity of hydrocarbons to functional group tests; Bayer’s test‚ Bromine test light‚ Bromine test dark‚ and Tollen’s test. In Bayer’s test‚ only Acetylene‚ Eugenol and Unknown hydrocarbon 2 reacted positively and the rest retain the purplish color of KMnO4. On the other hand‚ the five compounds in Bromine test with light reacted positively. In Bromine test dark‚ Hexane and Unknown hydrocarbon 1 did not react because light (UV) is absent. Lastly‚ in Tollen’s

Upon addition of bromine‚ the brown color of bromine quickly disappears as the bromine adds to the double bond in the products. Addition of bromine to the fractional distillate caused the bromine to discolor. The addition of bromine to 2-methyl-cyclohexanol remains brown because there is an absence of double bound (saturation). Addition of potassium permanganate caused the
