Reactivity trends of halogen:
1) Melting point and boiling points increased down the
group
2) Colour becomes darker.
E.g. Fluorine (pale yellow)
Chlorine (yellowish-green)
Bromine (reddish-brown)
Iodine (purplish-black)
Astatine (black)
3) The reactivity decreases down the group.
Reactivity:
F > Cl > Br > I > At
Answer:
the same
Explanation:
due to the law of conservation of mass, the mass will not change
Answer: It takes 3.120 seconds for the concentration of A to decrease from 0.860 M to 0.260 M.
Explanation:
Integrated rate law for second order kinetics is given by:
k = rate constant = 
= initial concentration = 0.860 M
a= concentration left after time t = 0.260 M

Thus it takes 3.120 seconds for the concentration of A to decrease from 0.860 M to 0.260 M.
