Write the names,molecular formulas,and structural formulas of the oxoacids of halogens.
(N/A) The oxoacids of halogens are summarized in the table below:
Due to its small size and high electronegativity,fluorine forms only one oxoacid,$HOF$ (hypofluorous acid). Most oxoacids of halogens are stable only in aqueous solution or in the form of their salts and cannot be isolated in a pure state.
| Oxidation State | Name and Formula |
|---|---|
| $Halic(I)$ acid | $HOF$ (Hypofluorous acid),$HOCl$ (Hypochlorous acid),$HOBr$ (Hypobromous acid),$HOI$ (Hypoiodous acid) |
| $Halic(III)$ acid | $HOClO$ (Chlorous acid) |
| $Halic(V)$ acid | $HOClO_2$ (Chloric acid),$HOBrO_2$ (Bromic acid),$HOIO_2$ (Iodic acid) |
| $Halic(VII)$ acid | $HOClO_3$ (Perchloric acid),$HOBrO_3$ (Perbromic acid),$HOIO_3$ (Periodic acid) |
