Push one end of a length of 20 cm. of stout copper wire into a cork (this wUl serve as a holder) at the other end make two or three turns about a thin glass rod. Heat the coil in the outer mantle of a Bunsen dame until it ceases to impart any colour to the dame. Allow the wire to cool somewhat and, while still warm, dip the coil into a small portion of the substance to be tested and heat again in the non-luminous dame. If the compound contains a halogen element, a green or bluish-green dame will be observed (usually after the initial smoky dame has disappeared). Before using the wire for another compound, heat it until the material from the previous test has been destroyed and the dame is not coloured. 

The halides are binary compounds of a halogen (elements of group Vllb of the periodic table) and a more electropositive element such as a metal. 

This type of bulb is called a quartz-halogen lamp because iodine is a halogen element (from Group VII of the periodic table).

Cadmium(II) bromide Cd + 2Br " —> CdBr. This compound is used in photography, engraving, and lithography. The other halogen elements also combine with cadmium in a similar ionic reaction as with bromine. 

The dipole moments of hydrogen halides decrease with the period of the halogen element the increase in the bond length / is overpowered by the decrease... 

Ligands based on halogen elements (elements of Group 17) ... 

The standard reduction potentials for the main species formed by the Group 17 elements in aqueous solution are given in Tables 6.16 and 6.17, for pH values 0 and 14, respectively. Irrespective of the pH of the solution, the halogen elements range from the extremely powerful F2 (which has the potential to oxidize water to dioxygen), through the powerful oxidants Cl2 and Br2, to 12, which is a relatively weak oxidant. 

As towards hydrogen so towards sulphur the affinity of the halogen elements rapidly decreases on passing from fluorine to iodine. Sulphur hexafluoride, SF6, is a stable substance, whereas the highest chlorine derivative which has been isolated is the unstable tetrachloride, SC14 sulphur monobromide, S2Br2, is the only bromide of sulphur known, whilst sulphur and iodine do not form any definite compound. 

The halogen elements are converted into the corresponding hydracids by sulphurous acid, the change being reversible in the case of bromine and especially with iodine ... 

With the exception of perchloric acid, the halogen oxyacids are reduced through the corresponding halogen elements to the hydracids in the case of iodic acid3 the formation of free iodine after a definite interval forms a striking example of a time reaction. 4 The formation of the element is not observed until after the disappearance of the whole of the sulphite. The mechanism of the reaction is probably as follows ... 

Hydrobromic acid reduces sulphuric add to sulphur dioxide, as also does hydriodic acid, but with the latter in high concentration the reduction goes further, producing sulphur and hydrogen sulphide.2 For this reason when metallic bromides and iodides are treated with sulphuric acid, the halogen element is liberated, the temperature at which this becomes evident depending on the concentration of the acid thus, with the potassium salts, the following observations have been made 3... 

All the halogen elements combine with tellurium. The powdered crystalline form is inflamed by fluorine in the cold 1 and by warm chlorine, the product in the latter case being the tetrachloride.2 With bromine the product is the dibromide, whilst iodine reacts only at a higher temperature, giving a tetra-iodide. Hydrogen chloride does not affect the element. 

Hydrogen telluride is very sensitive towards the halogen elements. It not only readily reduces chlorine, bromine and iodine to the corresponding hydracids with simultaneous liberation of tellurium (which in the case of chlorine can further pass easily into the tetrachloride), but it also reduces solutions of such salts as ferric chloride and mercuric chloride to the lower chlorides, tellurium being precipitated. It also reduces tellurium chlorides, the only products being hydrogen chloride and tellurium. 

Lithium Arsenide, Li3As, is formed when a mixture of the elements in suitable proportions is heated to redness, or when lithium arsenate is reduced by heating with charcoal in an electric furnace.8 It is a dark brown crystalline substance of great reactivity. It is attacked by the halogen elements at the ordinary temperature with incandescence. It burns vividly when heated in oxygen it reacts violently with nitric acid, and at a comparatively low temperature it reduces many metallic oxides. 

Iodine is a non-metallic halogen element (symbol I atomic no 53) which exists as a near-black solid but readily sublimates, giving a purple-colored vapor. It is found in nature both free (for example in large amounts in seaweeds such as kelp and in low concentrations in seawater) and in minerals such as iodyrite (silver iodide) and Chile saltpetre (sodium iodide).
