Interhalogen compounds are more reactive than halogen compounds.(a) True(b) FalseThe question was posed to me in an interview for job.I want to ask this question from P-Block Elements topic in section P-Block Elements of Chemistry – Class 12

Answer»

Correct choice is (a) True

To elaborate: Interhalogen compounds are FORMED by IONIC bonds DUE to DIFFERENCES in electronegativity. They are more reactive because they can dissociate easily as they have WEAKER bonds as compared to pure halogen compounds possessing covalent bonds that are formed by the sharing of electrons.
