What group is very unreactive?

noble gases

What are the trends in group 1 and 7?

But in Group 7 F to I they are are all non metals which means they LOVE electron so they will gain electrons. So group 1 atoms become ion when they loose their outer electron. They also loose their outer shell as they only have one electron for halogens they gain electrons so the radii slightly gets larger.

Is Group 1 or 7 more reactive?

A useful mnemonic picture to help you recall that: As you go down group 1 (the alkali metals) in the periodic table, the elements get more reactive. As you go up group 7 (the halogens), again the elements get more reactive.

What happens when a group 7 element reacts?

Sodium and chlorine react vigorously when heated, giving an orange flame and clouds of white sodium chloride. The halogens become less reactive going down group 7….Reactions with metals.

Halogen	Reaction
Iodine	Hot iron wool reacts slowly in iodine vapour to produce grey iron(II) iodide

What is the trend in melting points in Group 7?

The melting points and boiling points of the halogens increase going down group 7. This is because, going down group 7: the molecules become larger. more energy is needed to overcome these forces.

What is Group 7 also called?

The Group 7 elements are called the halogens. They are placed in the vertical column, second from the right, in the periodic table . Chlorine, bromine and iodine are the three common Group 7 elements. Group 7 elements form salts when they react with metals. The term ‘halogen’ means ‘salt former’.

How do you learn the elements in Group 1?

Group 1 is known as alkali metals. It includes Lithium (Li), Sodium (Na), Potassium (K), Rubidium (Ru), Caesium (Cs), and Francium (Fr). Mnemonic for Group 1: LiNa Ki Ruby Cse Friendship hai.
