Question

Explain why higher stability of BCl2 as compared to TlCl2

Answer 1

Hiii There!!!

Bcl2 has higher stability as compared to tlcl2 because, of the inert pair effect.

DEFINITION:-

Inert Pair effect is the reluctance of the vacant D-orbitals to participate in the bonding. It is because of the poor shielding effect of the vacant D-orbitals.
