Answer» 1. Beyond this value,boronwill become unstable and not be able toform BF6 3-ions. Boronis a non-metallic element. It is electron-deficient. It does not possess d orbitals in its valence shell. ii. The main reasons are;due to smaller size of F as compared to Cl , six smallF atoms can be easily accommodated around si atom while cl cannot since f are present in smaller 2p orbital and cl are present in larger 3p orbital therefore interaction of f lone pair electron with d orbitals of silicon are stronger in f ascompared cl Nitric acid reacts with aluminium andformsa protective layer i.e. Al2O3. This protective layer makes aluminium unreactive towards HNO3 and therefore, it can be stored in aluminium containers. |
