प्रश्न
Explain the reactions of nonmetals with water with the help of examples.

उत्तर
Generally, nonmetals do not react with water, except halogens.
E.g. Chlorine on dissolving in water gives the following reaction:
\[\ce{\underset{\text{Chlorine}}{Cl_{2(g)}} + \underset{\text{Water}}{H2O_{(l)}} -> \underset{\text{acid}}{\underset{\text{Hypochlorous}}{HOCl_{(aq)}}} + \underset{\text{acid}}{\underset{\text{Hydrochloric}}{HCl_{(aq)}}}}\]
