Why SnCl4 is more covalent Than SnCl2 explain in Clarification |
|
Answer» ng to FAZAN's rule,SMALLER the size of an atom HIGHER will be its polarising capacity.As we can see, in SnCl4 and SnCl2, the oxidation states of Sn are +4 and +2 respectively(this shows Sn in SnCl4 is smaller than Sn in SnCl2). That's the REASON behind the higher covalent nature of SnCl4. |
