Why can't iodine be used to displace bromine from sodium bromide?

Iodine is lower in the halogen displacement series than bromine, i.e., iodine is less electronegative than bromine. However both chlorine and fluorine can displace bromine in sodium bromide, as they are more electronegative.

What can sodium be mixed with?
Flourine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, astatine
What elements make up NABR?
There are two elements that make up the compound NaBr, or sodium bromide. These two elements are sodium and bromine.
What other Name method for the removal of vicinal dibromides?
You can use sodium iodide, and the iodine will react to kick out the bromide.
What the compound for NaBr?
Sodium bromide.
When fluorine gas is bubbled through a solution of sodium bromide the products are free bromine liquid and sodium fluoride in solution is?
The chemical reaction is: 2NaBr + F2 = 2NaF + Br2
Bromine plus sodium iodide equals sodium bromide plus iodine?
yes..no
Why does a aqueous solution of iodine not react with sodium bromide?
Bromine is more reactive than iodine/bromine is higher in the activity series than iodine
What would be observed if chlorine water was added to a dilute solution of sodium bromide?
Chlorine will displace bromine from NaBr
What is the formula sodium bromide and iodine?
Well, if your talking about the reaction between sodium bromide (NaBr) and Iodine, then I don't think that it will replace bromine. Bromine is higher on the reactivity series, so if they come into contact with each other, there won't simply be any reaction
Bromine added to sodium iodide?
Ethanol and NaBr. The delta negative OH dissociates from Sodium creating an +Na ion. The Bromine withdraws the electron density towards itself leaving the Carbon delta +. This means that the -OH will attack the +C removing -Br.
What is the word and chemical equition for the reaction between bromine and sodium iodied?
2NaI(aq)+Br2(l)-->2NaBr(aq)+I2(l) Sodium iodide+bromine-->sodium bromide+iodine
What elements make ups sodium bromide?
Sodium and bromide
What are the three elements in sodium bromide?
There are only two elements in sodium bromide -- sodium and bromine.
What is the formulas of sodium bromine?
Sodium Bromide = NaBr
Does bromine react with soduim?
Yes: Bromine reacts with sodium to form sodium bromide.
What happens when bromine and sodium combine?
They form Sodium Bromide
What happens when bromine reacts with sodium?
Sodium bromide(NaBr) is formed
