Compounds which readily undergo hydrolysis are

A

`C Cl_(4)`

B

`BCl_(3)`

C

`SiCl_(4)`

D

`CF_(4)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B, C
`BCl_(3)andSiCl_(4)` have vacant orbital of suitable energy to accept a pair of electron from `H_(2)O` molecule and thus easily undergo hydrolysis whereas in `C Cl_(4)andCF_(4)` due to the absence of low lying d - orbitals, hydroysis is not possible
`BCl_(3)+3H_(2)OtoB(OH)_(3)+3HCl`
`SiCl_(4)+4H_(2)OtoH_(4)SiO_(4)+4HCl`
