Cl2O,Br2O,I2O have positive value of △G (free energy) indicating that :
The oxides of chlorine, bromine and iodine are well known. They have various compositions. The oxides of chlorine are thermally unstable and dangerously explosive. They react with alkali. The bromine oxides are thermally more stable than chlorine oxides. The structure of halogen oxides is explained on the basis of VSEPR theory.
Which oxide of chlorine is colourless?
The structure of Cl2O7 is O3Cl−O−ClO3 The Cl - O-Cl bond angle is:
