AlCl3 is lewis acid. Explain how?

Chemistry
1 answer:
professor190 [17]3 years ago
3 0

 For AlCl3  to be a Lewis acid, it would have to react in such a way that it accepted a lone pair from some other atom or molecule from a Lewis base.AlCl3  has an electron-deficient aluminum atom. It has only six electrons in its valence shell. It readily accepts electrons from other atoms, in an attempt to get a full valence shell of eight electrons.

2 icl + h2i2 + 2 hcl is first order in icl and second order in h2. Complete the rate law for this reaction in the box below. Use
OleMash [197]

2 ICl + H2   ----> I2 + 2 HCl

as given that rate is first order with respect to ICl and second order with respect to H2

The rate law will be

Rate = K [ICl] [ H2]^2

b) Given that K = 2.01 M^-2 s^-1

Concentrations are

[ICl] = 0.273 m and [H2] = 0.217 m

Therefore rate = 2.01 X (0.273)(0.217)^2 = 0.0258 M / s
