Vedclass · Answer

(C) Carbon does not have vacant $d$-orbitals in its valence shell. Therefore,it cannot expand its coordination number beyond $4$ to accommodate the incoming water molecule. As a result,$CCl_4$ does not undergo hydrolysis at room temperature,whereas $SiCl_4$,$SnCl_4$,and $PbCl_4$ can undergo hydrolysis due to the presence of vacant $d$-orbitals.

Which of the following halides does not hydrolyse at room temperature?
