Transition metals combine with halogens at high temperature to form compounds calledhalides. On account of high activation energy , the reactions require high temperatureto start, but once thethe reaction is started , the heat of reaction is sufficientto maintain the continuity .Metals in higheroxidation state form flourides as it is the most electronegative element . Flourides are ionic in nature . The chlorides , bromides and iodides have ionicas well as covalent character . Halides of metals is higher oxidation statesare relatively unstable and hydrolysed very easily . DeltaH_(f) is negative for |
