Will fluorine replace iodine in a reaction?

Yes. Fluorine is more reactive than iodine.


Why group 7 elements get more reactive as you go down the group from fluorine to iodine?

There can not be any reason, because the premise is not true: Group 7 elements become less rather than more reactive from fluorine to iodine.


Why fluorine is more reactive than oxygen?

No, fluorine is the most reactive element that exists.


Why chlorine is highly reactive than other halogens?

It isn't. Fluorine is more reactive. However, Chlorine is more reactive than Bromine, Iodine and Astatine. It is all to do with molecular size. Fluorine wants to get to a stable 10 electrons to be like Neon more than Chlorine wants to get to get 18 lectrons to be like Argon. This is because the valence/bonding electrons are closer to the nucleus in Fluorine than they are Chlorine and thus more strongly attracted.


What is more reatice fluorine or chlorine?

Fluorine is more reactive than chlorine.


Is fluorine more reactive than arsenic?

Yes


Is fluorine more reactive than chlorine?

yes


Is fluorine more reactive than acylchloride?

No, acyl chloride is very reactive as both an electrophile or a nucleophile. Fluorine is just very electronegative.


Why flourine is most reactive?

The thing that makes fluorine so reactive is its electronegativity.


Which is more reactive fluorine or nitrogen?

Fluorine is the most reactive element period. So, it is therefore more reactive than carbon. However, as carbon forms the basis of organic molecules, people come across its compounds more often.


Why iodine is less reactive than bromine?

Bromine has more nuclear charge as compared to iodine. So, bromine easily attracts an electron and hence more reactive.


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
