Explain the effect of increasing concentraion of O2 on the equilibrium position of this gas phase reaction and what you might see given that Nitrogen Oxide and Nitrogen Dioxide appear colourless and brown respectively. NO + 0.5O2 ----> NO2

Using "Le Chatelier's principle", the equilbrium will seek to oppose the change made to the reaction. In order to counter the increase in oxygen concentration, the reaction will shift to...

Chlorine reacts with potassium bromide to form potassium chloride and bromine. In this reaction chlorine forms chloride ions: Cl2 + 2KBr --> 2KCl + Br2. Explain, using the equation, how you know that chlorine has been reduced.

It is reduced because it gains an electron in the reaction and reduction is the gain of electrons, therefore the chlorine has been reduced.

Why do group 1 metals become more reactive as you descend the group?

The outer electron is further from the nucleus of the atom, therefore feeling less effective nuclear attraction .
As you descend the group 1 metals, more shells of electrons are present in the metal...
