Why KHF2 exist but KHCl 2 does not? |
| Answer» Due to the presence of hydrogen bonding in HF, the structure is converted to,\xa0This can dissociate to give\xa0{tex} \\mathrm{HF}_{2}^{-} {/tex}\xa0ion.If we add K+\xa0to\xa0{tex} \\mathrm{HF}_{2}^{-} {/tex}\xa0ion, we get\xa0KHF2.Due to the absence of hydrogen bonding in HCl,\xa0{tex} \\mathrm{HCl}_{2}^{-} {/tex}\xa0ion is not formed.Hence, KHCI2\xa0does not exist.Therefore,\xa0KHF2\xa0exists but KHCl2\xa0does not exist. | |
