Some halides of group 14 elements form complexes of the type [Mx6]2-. Give reason. |
|
Answer» The halides of the elements having vacant d-orbital’s can form complexes like [SiF6]2- and [SnCl6]2- ,because in such a case the central atom can increase its coordination number from 4 to 6 due to availability of vacant d–orbital’s. |
