How do we determine covalency of al in [AlCl(h20)5]2+ molecule???
Answers

oxidation state of Al= x
oxidation state of Cl= -1
so, x-1+6 x 0= +2
x=+3
Since H20 is attached to the Al atom, so its covalency is 6
oxidation state of Cl= -1
so, x-1+6 x 0= +2
x=+3
Since H20 is attached to the Al atom, so its covalency is 6
