The correct Answer is:
To solve the question "Hydrogen can react with the following even in dark," we need to analyze the options provided and understand the reactivity of hydrogen with different halogens. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Reactivity of Hydrogen with Halogens**: - Hydrogen can react with halogens to form hydrogen halides (HX), where X represents a halogen (F, Cl, Br, I). - The general reaction can be represented as: \[ H_2 + X_2 \rightarrow 2HX \] 2. **Analyzing Each Option**: - **Option A: Iodine (I2)**: - Iodine typically requires heat and a catalyst to react with hydrogen. Therefore, it does not react in the dark. - **Option B: Chlorine (Cl2)**: - Chlorine reacts with hydrogen, but this reaction usually requires sunlight or UV light to initiate. Hence, it does not react in the dark. - **Option C: Fluorine (F2)**: - Fluorine is highly reactive and can react with hydrogen even in the dark. The reaction is: \[ H_2 + F_2 \rightarrow 2HF \] - This makes fluorine the correct answer. - **Option D: Bromine (Br2)**: - Bromine requires heating and a catalyst to react with hydrogen, so it does not react in the dark. 3. **Conclusion**: - Based on the analysis, the only halogen that can react with hydrogen even in the dark is **Fluorine (F2)**. ### Final Answer: The correct option is **C: F2 (Fluorine)**. ---
