Chalcogens forms many halides like MX(6)...

Chalcogens forms many halides like `MX_(6)`,` MX_(4)`, `MX_(2)` and `M_(2)X_(2)` Compounds of fluorine with oxygen are called oxygenfluorides because F is more electro negative than 0. But other halogens `(cl, Br,I)` are called halogen oxides.

Consider the following reactions: MX_(4)+X'_(2) to MX_(4)X_(2)' If atomic number of M is 52 and X and X' are halogens and X' is more electonegative than X. Then choose the correct statement regarding the given information:

Halogens react with each other to form a number of compounds called interhalogen 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 covalent 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 ?

Which of the statement is/are true about the reactivity of halogenation of alkanes ? The reactivity ordar is F_(2) gt C1_(2) gt Br_(2) gt I_(2) . I. Lower the activation energy for the chain initiation step, more reactive is the halogen. II. Lower the activation energy for the first chain propagation step, more reactive is the halogen. III. More negative is the overall heat of the reaction (Delta H_(r)^(@)) of halogenation ofg alkane, more reactive is the halogen. IV.
