(1) Chlorine forms number of oxides such as Cl_(2)O , ClO_(2), Cl_(2) O_(7) chlorine and oxygen donot combine together directly. So, these are prepared by indirect method. HgO. Hgo + Cl_(2) rarr Cl_(2)O + Hg, (2) Some of these oxides undergo disproportionation reactions. For Ex : Cl_(2) O_(6) + 2KOH rarr KClO_(3) + KClO_(4) + H_(2)O ( 3) The oxides of chlrine are acidic in nature. Cl_(2)O_(7) is the anhydride of perchloric acid Cl_(2) O_(7) + H_(2) O rarr 2HClO_(4) Which of the given statement is incorrect

Answer»

`ClO_(3)` exists in equilibrium with `Cl_(2) O_(6)` the dimer diamagnetic while monomer is paramagnetic
`Cl_(2)O` is an ANGULAR molecule
`Cl_(2) O_(6)` is mixed anhydride of chloric acid & perchloric acid
`ClO_(2)` reacts with KOH to give a mixture of `Cl_(2)` & `KClO_(2)`

Solution :`2ClO_(2) + 2KOH rarr KClO_(2) + KClO_(3) + H_(2)O`
