Vedclass · Answer

(C) Interhalogen compounds are generally more reactive than halogens (except $F_2$) because the $X-X'$ bond is weaker than the $X-X$ bond.They are diamagnetic in nature as all electrons are paired.During the hydrolysis of interhalogen compounds, the less electronegative halogen forms an oxyacid, and the more electronegative halogen forms a hydrohalic acid.For $ICl$, the reaction is: $ICl + H_2O \rightarrow HCl + HOI$.Therefore, the statement that the products are $HI + HOCl$ is incorrect.
