MCQ
Which of the statements about anhydrous aluminium chloride is correct
  • A
    It exists as $AlC{l_3}$ molecule
  • B
    It is not easily hydrolysed
  • It sublimes at ${100\,^o}C$ under vacuum
  • D
    It is a strong Lewis base

Answer

Correct option: C.
It sublimes at ${100\,^o}C$ under vacuum
c
It exists as dimer in vapour.

It is a strong Lewis acid due to incomplete octet and because of that it can be easily hydrolyzed.
