    21. This -uestion is about some reactions of halogens and halide ions.

    'a) 'i) When chlorine is added to a solution containing bromide or iodide ions, a colourchange occurs. What solvent would you add to the mi&ture to confirm the identityof the halogen produced%

    'b) 'i) olid potassium bromide and potassium iodide can be distinguished by theirreactions with concentrated sulfuric acid.

    $otassium bromide reacts with concentrated sulfuric acid initially to producehydrogen bromide. This reacts further, as shown below, to produce a sharpsmelling gas and a brown fuming li-uid.
