Answer:

Explanation:

When it comes to the trend of reactivity in halogens, the reactivity decreases down the table. This is because in the nucleus of the atoms (mix of protons and neutrons), there is less of an attraction of the protons to the electrons on the outer shell, which gets further away going down. Since halogens are non metals, they need to gain electrons to become stable, and so this lesser attraction to the electrons may not allow this at least immediately. Fluorine is the most reactive out of all, have less of its outer shells and so being able to react much quickly.

Salt dissolved in water is a solution, therefore

salt is not chemically bonded to water
the ratio of salt to water may vary
salt and water retain their own chemical properties

<u>Explanation:</u>

Salt (sodium chloride) is formed from positive sodium ions bonded to negative chloride ions. Water can dissolve salt because the positive part of water particles attracts the negative chloride ions of salt. The water particle effects to be charged negatively near the atom of oxygen and positively near the atom of hydrogen.

Since contrasts attract, the water molecules tend to join collectively like magnets. Water is called the universal solvent since it can solve more substances than any other liquid. The salt and water retain their unique chemical properties.
