The document discusses reactions of group 7 halogens from the periodic table. It describes how chlorine gas reacts with sodium hydroxide solution to form sodium chloride, water, and sodium hypochlorite. Hydrofluoric acid is mentioned as the only acid that can dissolve glass by reacting with silicon dioxide. The document also discusses how iodine can be used to test for the presence of starch through formation of an intense dark blue-black color with triiodide ions.
