Reaction Conditions
Explosive even at
F2(g) + H2(g) → 2HF(g) -200oC in the dark.
Explosive in sunlight.
Cl2(g) + H2(g) → 2HCl(g)
Slow in the dark.
Br2(g) + H2(g) → 2HBr(g) 300oC + Pt catalyst
Very slow at 300oC with
I2(g) + H2(g) → 2HI(g)
Pt catalyst

• Reactivity decreases as you go T
down the group. I
V
• In larger atoms the outermost I
T
electrons are further from the Y Cl
nucleus. I
N
• This makes it harder to gain an C
electron as it will be less strongly R
