Why SF6 is known but SH6 is not known ?...

Why `SF_6` is known but `SH_6` is not known ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Flourine is highly electronegative and it can excite the electrons of S to higher excited state `S (VI). F = 1s^2 2s^2 2 P^5`

But H is not electronegative but is electropositive but it is electropositive and it can.t excite electron to S (vi) O.S. `SF_6` is known but SH is not know.
