उत्तर
They are chemically very reactive.
Explanation:
Interstitial compounds/alloys are substances that are formed when a small atom like carbon, hydrogen, boron, nitrogen can occupy space in their lattices. All the properties mentioned above are true for interstitial compounds except, they are chemically inert.
