Halogens react with each other to form a number of compounds called interalogen compounds. Their genral formula is `AX_(n)`, where A is less electronegative halogen while X is a more electronegative halogen and n is its number. The interhalogen compounds are essentially convalent and more reactive than the halogens since the bond A-X is weaker than A-A or X-X bond. The reaction of interhalogens are similar to those of halogens. Which of the following statement is wrong for interhalogen ?A. The value of n in `AX_(n)` (interhalogen) can be 1,3,5 or 7B. The value of n in `AX_(n)` (intrehalogen) can be 2,4, or 6C. A can never be fluorine as it is most electronegative halogen.D. `X` can never be iodine as it is least electronegative halogen.
