Answer:

Interhalogen compounds are covalent in nature. More reactive than halogens because of low bond energy due to dissimilar size of atoms in molecule. As the molecule becomes a little polar the boiling point increases due to inter-molecular attraction. They are reactive and unstable because of low bond energy.

the characteristics of interhalogen compounds are -

  1. the inter halogen compounds are those compounds that contain two or more halogen atoms and does not have any other element.
  2. they are covalent in nature and more reactive in nature than the halogens itself. this is because of the low bond energy.
  3. examples - bromine trifluoride, iodine pentafluoride, etc.

catalytic properties of transition elements are -

  1. these elements have vacant d-orbitals.
  2. these elements show variable valency.
  3. they also form complex compounds.
