1. What are interhalogen compounds?
Ans. Interhalogen compounds are chemical compounds that are formed by the combination of two different halogens. They have the general formula XY_n, where X and Y represent different halogens and n represents the number of halogens involved in the compound.
2. How are interhalogen compounds named?
Ans. Interhalogen compounds are named based on the halogens present in the compound. The more electronegative halogen is named first, followed by the less electronegative halogen. The prefixes mono-, di-, tri-, etc., are used to indicate the number of atoms of each halogen present in the compound.
3. What are the physical properties of interhalogen compounds?
Ans. Interhalogen compounds are generally polar and have high boiling and melting points. They are often liquids or solids at room temperature and can be volatile. They are also known to be strong oxidizing agents and can react violently with water or organic compounds.
4. What are some examples of interhalogen compounds?
Ans. Some examples of interhalogen compounds include chlorine trifluoride (ClF3), bromine pentafluoride (BrF5), iodine heptafluoride (IF7), and fluorine chloride (ClF).
5. What are the uses of interhalogen compounds?
Ans. Interhalogen compounds have various uses in industry and research. They are used as powerful oxidizing agents, catalysts, and as intermediates in the production of other chemicals. They also find applications in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals.
