In the hydrolysis of ICl , the products are:
Options:
Answer:
C
Solution:
Question Explanation:
Determining the products of ICl hydrolysis.
Concept:
Hydrolysis of Interhalogen Compounds.
Solution:
In interhalogens of type XX', the less electronegative halogen becomes the central atom in the oxyacid, while the more electronegative halogen forms a halide acid (HX). In ICl, Iodine is less electronegative than Chlorine. Thus, Iodine forms HOI (hypoiodous acid) and Chlorine forms HCl .
Final Answer: HCl and HOI
