Answer all the questions.

1 Bromine is a reactive element. It combines with other non-metals to form covalent compounds.
Phosphorus tribromide, PBr3, and iodine monobromide, IBr, are examples of covalent compounds used in
organic synthesis.

(a) PBr3 can be prepared by heating bromine with phosphorus, P4.


(i) Write an equation for this reaction.

(b) Bromine reacts with iodine to form iodine monobromide, IBr.

The table below lists some average bond enthalpies which are required in different parts of this
question.

Bond Average bond enthalpy / kJ mol−1
Br–Br +193
I–I +151
I–Br +175

(i) Average bond enthalpy is the enthalpy change for the breaking of 1 mole of bonds in
gaseous molecules.

Why do Br2 and I2 not exist in the gaseous state under standard conditions?

……………………………………………………………………………………………….

∆fH = ……………………… kJ mol−1 [2]


(c) Iodine monobromide, I–Br, is a polar molecule.

Heterolytic fission of the I–Br bond forms an electrophile.

State the meaning of the term electrophile and suggest the formula of the electrophile formed from
IBr.

……………………………………………………………………………………………….

(d) Bromine disproportionates when it reacts with potassium hydroxide solution.

Suggest an equation for this reaction.
