molecular species exist in the solution and what is its structure ? Write down more compounds having similar geometries.
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
CHECK THE SOLUTION.
Sol. KI + I2 ⎯→ KI3
Brown Deepred
I3 has linear shap [I – I – I]–
others molecules having similar geometrie are
[KCl2 : IBr2 : CsBrCl2]
