1.	`C Cl_(4)` is inert towards hydrolysis but `SiCl_(4)` is readily hydrolysed becauseA. carbon cannot expand its octet but silicon can expand its octetB. ionisation potential of carbon is higher than siliconC. carbon forms double and triple bondsD. electronegativity of carbon is higher than of silicon
Answer» Correct Answer - A `C Cl_(4)` is not readily hydrolysed due to non-availability of `d`-orbital in carbon.
