Why SCL6 is not possible?

This is due to the difference in size of flourine and chlorine. Flourine being smaller in size accommodate its six atoms in given space of sulphur while chlorine being bigger in size is not able to accommodate itself due to repulsion between its six atoms. That’s why SF6 is known but SCL6 is not known.

Does si6 exist?

Due to small size of S, it cannot accommodate 6 large Cl atoms, hence SCl6 doesn’t exist. Also due to comparatively low electronegativity of Cl, it cannot cause promotion of electron in S to S(VI).

What is the chemical name for SCl6?

sulfur hexachloride
The name of the compound, SCl6, is sulfur hexachloride.

Does SF6 exist?

This case is not possible for SH6 since since here Sulphur is more electronegative than Hydrogen. There will be no withdrawing of electron density so no d – orbital contraction and no extension of octet. Thus SF6 exists but SH6 does not exist.

Why is nf6 compound not known?

oxygen electronic configuration is 1s2 2s2 2p4 It have only two orbital s and p but it do not have d- orbital. Since oxygen atom has no vacant d-orbitals, therefore, OF6 compound is not known.

Is SF6 possible?

Why does SF6 exist?

It attracts electrons from Sulfur to finish its [He] 2s2 2p5 level. Since sulfur can donate 6 electrons and fluorine can accept only one, they form SF6.
