The p-Block Elements
Inter-halogen compounds more reactive than the corresponding elemental hydrogen because interhalogen are weaker than diatomic halogen bond except for F2.
It is due to their differences in electronegtivies. A substance like ICl is more reactive than Ioinde(I2) because the electronegtive difference polarise the bond between Iodine and chlorine and therefore breaks more easily.
