Assertion : \(\mathrm{AlCl}_3\) exists as a dimer through halogen bridged bonds.
Reason : \(\mathrm{AlCl}_3\) gets stability by accepting electrons from the bridged halogen.
- A Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
- B Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)
- C (A) is true, but (R) is false
- D (A) is false, but (R) is true
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\mathrm{AlCl}_3\) exists as a dimer through halogen bridged bonds. In dimer \(\mathrm{Al}_2 \mathrm{Cl}_6\) aluminium completes its octet through coordinates bond by chloine atom.
