Halogens react with each other to form a...

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 halogen shows maximum oxidation state in forming interhalogen compound ?

A

I

B
