Not with water! Maybe with something else in the water?
It only ionises when dissolved in the water to: K+ and Br- , but does not react with it. Dissolving is purely physical!
potassium hydroxide
Not safely. If potassium makes contact with water it react violently, bursting inflames and possibly exploding.
Potassium would lose electrons in all its reactions especially with Bromine.
No. However, bromine would displace iodine in potassium iodide.
KBr
they would react
Bromine and Potassium iodide react to form Potassium bromide and Iodine.
all of the halogens: bromine, fluorine, oxygen, chlorine and iodine. and it is highly reactive with water.
Chlorine is more reactive than bromine thus bromine is unable to displace chlorine to form potassium bromide.
An ionic bond will form between potassium (K) and bromine (Br). This compound, potassium bromide, KBr, is a salt, which is, in general, the combination of a metal (a Group 1 or Group 2 element) and a halogen (a Group 17 element). All salts are bonded ionically.
Yes, it can, by displacing the Iodide
no

If this is supposed to be an alkene test, then no, hexane will not react with bromine water to take away its color as it is an alkane and therefore contains no double bonds. But bromine water will react with sodium hydroxide; bromine water contains either HCl or H2SO4, both of which will of course react with sodium hydroxide. In addition, I believe (from some experiments like this that I've done recently) that sodium hydroxide will actually react with the free bromine in the bromine water, as evidenced by the change in color from the orange-ish color of bromine water to a pale yellow.
Yes, the reaction is:Cl2 + 2 KBr = 2 KCl + Br2
