Sif4 Lewis Structure Molecular Geometry Hybridization And Polarity
The melting and boiling point of silicon tetrafluoride is -95.0 °C and -90.3 °C and hence, it exists as a gas at room temperature. Silicon tetrafluoride is a colorless, toxic, corrosive, and non-flammable gas with a pungent smell. Silicon tetrafluoride is prepared in the laboratory by decomposition of BaSiF6 at a temperature greater than 300 °C. BaSiF6 —–> SiF4 (volatile) + BaF2 (residue) The volatile nature of silicon tetrafluoride limits their use and hence, it is restrained to only organic synthesis and microelectronic....
