Bromine's atomic radii is larger than that of chlorine.
Chlorine is in 3rd period and 17th group bromine is in 4th period and 17th group. The number of shells present in an atom is equal to the period no. In which it is present. So, chlorine has 3 shells while bromine has 4 shells. And atomis size is the distance between centre of nucleus and outermost shell. So, bromine atom is larger than bromine atom..
Bromine is bulky when compared to chlorine and hence a better leaving group.
The electronegativity of bromine is larger than hydrogen, which shifts the location of shared electrons toward bromine.
Because.
Bromine's atomic radii is larger than that of chlorine.
Bromine has a larger radius (not raduis) than chlorine.

Chlorine is a stronger oxidizing agent than bromine.
chlorine is more active than bromine which is more active than iodine
No, chlorine has a lower boiling point than bromine. Bromine has a boiling point of 332.0 K (58.8 °C, 137.8 °F) Chlorine has a boiling point of 239.11 K (-34.4 °C, -29.27 °F) I have been assigned a homework assignment to the purpose of explaining why this is, although I have no clue... yet. The reason for this is that the London Dispersion Force in Bromine is higher than that of Chlorine. London Dispersion Force depends on the polarizability which consists of two parts: number of electrons in each of these two diatomic molecules and the diffuse cloud (which mainly is the size of the molecule). Because Bromine has more electrons than Chlorine (35 to 17) and Bromine is larger than Chlorine (Period 4 > Period 3). Because of the above, Bromine has higher intermolecular force, London Dispersion Force specifically than Chlorine. Thus, it requires more energy to break the bonds between Bromine molecules than Chlorine molecules. In term of thermodynamics, Bromine has higher boiling point than Chlorine.
Yes, considerably so. In general, positive ions are smaller than their neutral atoms, and negative ions are larger than their neutral atoms.
Bromine is bulky when compared to chlorine and hence a better leaving group.
Chlorine is more reactive than bromine thus bromine is unable to displace chlorine to form potassium bromide.
Bromide ions are larger than bromine atoms because the ion has one more electron than the neutral atom. The extra electron is less tightly bound than the other electrons because it experiences a smaller effective nuclear charge. Other anions are also larger than their corresponding atoms for the same reason; cations, on the other hand, are smaller than their corresponding atoms because they have fewer electrons.
Bromine is obtained by oxidising naturally occuring bromides with chlorine gas. This approach exploits the fact that chlorine is more reactive than bromine.
