The correct Answer is:
To solve the given question, we need to analyze both statements provided and determine their validity. ### Step 1: Analyze Statement 1 **Statement 1:** "All interhalogens are paramagnetic." - Interhalogens are compounds formed between different halogen atoms (e.g., ClF, BrCl, etc.). - To determine if they are paramagnetic or diamagnetic, we need to look at the electron configuration of the halogens involved. - In interhalogens, the valence electrons can be either bonding or non-bonding. If all electrons are paired, the species will be diamagnetic; if there are unpaired electrons, it will be paramagnetic. - Most interhalogen compounds have all their valence electrons paired due to the nature of bonding between halogens. Thus, they are generally diamagnetic. **Conclusion for Statement 1:** This statement is **false**. ### Step 2: Analyze Statement 2 **Statement 2:** "AB type of interhalogen undergoes hydrolysis giving a halide ion derived from the smaller halogen and a hypohalite ion derived from the larger halogen." - An AB type interhalogen consists of two different halogens, where A is the larger halogen and B is the smaller halogen. - When an AB type interhalogen reacts with water (H2O), it undergoes hydrolysis. - The hydrolysis reaction can be represented as: \[ AB + H_2O \rightarrow HB + HOA \] Here, HB is the halide ion derived from the smaller halogen (B), and HOA is the hypohalite ion derived from the larger halogen (A). - This reaction is consistent with the behavior of interhalogens in hydrolysis. **Conclusion for Statement 2:** This statement is **true**. ### Final Answer - Statement 1 is **false**. - Statement 2 is **true**. Thus, the correct answer is option **B**. ---
