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. How many lone pairs of electrons are present on chlorine in ClF_(3) molecule ?

Most of the polyatomic molecules except a few such as CO_(2) and CS_(2) are linear or angular with a bond angle generally somewhat greater than 90^(@) A bond angle is defined as the angle between the direction of two covalent bonds Since the atoms in molecules are in constant motion with respect to each other they are not expected to have a fixed value of bond angle Repulsion between non-bonded atoms alone does not provide an adequate explanation Hybridisation of bonding orbitals an adequate explanation Hybridisation of bonding orbitals also plays a very important role in detrmining the value of bond angle It has been observed that in hybridisation as the s-character of hybrid orbital increases the bond angle increases In P_(4) molecule phosphorous atoms are tetrahedrally arranged The angle P-P-P in the molecule is .
