Give reason for the following : F_(2) is more reactive than CIF_(3) but CIF_(3) is more reactive than Cl_(2).

Answer»

SOLUTION :Due to the small size of flourine, it has high ELECTRONEGATIVITY and low bond energy so it is more reactive than CIF ,. But `CL - Cl` bond energy is higher than `Cl – F` bond . Therefore `CIF_(3)`is more reactive than `Cl_(2)`.
