Compounds wich readily unfergo hydrolysis are :A. `CCl_4`B. `BCl_3`C. `SiCl_4`D. `CF_4`

Answer» Correct Answer - B::C
` BC l_3` and ` SiCl_4` have vacant orbital of suitable enrgy to acept a pair of electron from `H_2O` molecule and thus easily undergo hydroysis, whereas in ` CC l_4` and ` CF_(4+)` due to the absence of low lying d-orbitals , hdrolysis is not possible .
` BC l_3 + 3 H_2O rarr B(OH)_3 +3HCl`
`S iCl_4+ 4H_2O rarr H_4SiO_4 +4HCl`.
