The correct Answer is:
To determine how many of the given compounds exist, we will analyze each compound one by one based on known chemical stability and oxidation states. 1. **BiF₅ (Bismuth Pentafluoride)**: - Bismuth typically exhibits oxidation states of +3 and +5. However, BiF₅ is known to be unstable and does not exist under normal conditions. - **Conclusion**: Does not exist. 2. **PbO₂ (Lead(IV) Oxide)**: - Lead can exist in +2 and +4 oxidation states. PbO₂ is stable and is a known compound. - **Conclusion**: Exists. 3. **SnCl₂ (Tin(II) Chloride)**: - Tin can exist in +2 and +4 oxidation states. SnCl₂ is a stable compound and is commonly found. - **Conclusion**: Exists. 4. **Tl₂O₃ (Thallium(III) Oxide)**: - Thallium can exist in +1 and +3 oxidation states. Tl₂O₃ is a known and stable compound. - **Conclusion**: Exists. 5. **PbI₄ (Lead(IV) Iodide)**: - Similar to PbO₂, lead can also exhibit +4 oxidation state with iodine. However, PbI₄ is unstable because lead(IV) is easily reduced to lead(II) and iodine is oxidized to I₂. Therefore, PbI₄ does not exist. - **Conclusion**: Does not exist. 6. **As₂O₃ (Arsenic(III) Oxide)**: - Arsenic can exist in +3 and +5 oxidation states. As₂O₃ is a stable compound and is well-documented. - **Conclusion**: Exists. Now, summarizing the existence of the compounds: - **Exist**: PbO₂, SnCl₂, Tl₂O₃, As₂O₃ (4 compounds) - **Do not exist**: BiF₅, PbI₄ (2 compounds) **Final Answer**: Out of the six compounds listed, **four** are found to exist.
