Answer :

Final answer:

The answer addresses physical properties of hydrogen, characteristics of group 17 elements, cations causing water hardness, methods of water hardness removal, acid-base titration, halogens reactivity, boiling points of isomers, and IUPAC names of compounds.


Explanation:

Physical Properties of Hydrogen:

  1. Colorless and odorless gas
  2. Low density
  3. Highly flammable

Group 17 Elements:

  1. Group: Halogens
  2. Least Reactive: Iodine
  3. Solid at Room Temperature: Iodine

Cations Causing Hardness of Water: Calcium (Ca2+) and Magnesium (Mg2+)

Methods of Removal of Permanent Hardness of Water: Ion exchange resin and boiling

Halogen Reactivity: Fluorine & Chlorine are gases at room temperature, Bromine is liquid, and Iodine is solid due to increased molecular mass.

Boiling Points of Isomers in Decreasing Order: 2,2-dimethylpropane, 2-methylbutane, pentane

IUPAC Names of Compounds:
(1) 1-bromo-butane and propan-1-ol

(II) 2-methylbutane
