  • 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 of the following interhalogen compound is not possible ?

    A
    `IF_(7)`
    B
    `IF_(5)`
    C
    `CIF_(3)`
    D
    `FBr_(3)`
