Which one of the following is the true covalent oxide of iodine?A. `I_2O_4`B. `I_2O_5`C. `I_2O_7`D. `I_2O_9` |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - B In general, higher the oxidation state, more is the covalent character of the oxide. `I_2 O_7 and I_2O_9` do not exist. `I_2O_4` is ionic in nature. It is infact iodyl iodate `[IO]^(+) [IO_3]^(-)`. The only covalent oxide of iodine is `I_2O_5` |
