Does AlCl3 have a dipole moment?
No, it doesn't. Dipole moment is the measure polarity of a polar covalent bond
What is a cooridinate covalent bond?
A bond where both electrons come from one of the atoms. For example the bonds that hold two AlCl3 monomers together to form the dimeric Al2Cl6. Another name for coordinate covalent bond is dative bond.
Is AlCl3 a polar covalent bond?
First, the symbol for any chemical element properly begins with a capital, not a lower case letter. Second, assuming the formula is rectified to AlCl3, it is the formula for a chemical compound, and no chemical compound is any kind of chemical bond: A compound has bonds, or contains bonds, or illustrates bonding. With that out of the way, yes, the compound properly represented by the formula AlCl3 does indeed contain polar covalent bonds.
Is AlCl3 a covalent or ionic compound?
Solid AlCl3 is ionic. Liquid and gaseous AlCl3 is present as a covalent dimer, Al2Cl6. At high temperatures the dimer dissociates to form the planar covalent monomer AlCl3.
What is pH 0.1M AlCl3?
- log(0.1 M AlCl3) = 1 pH =====
Compare and contrast the bond properties of N2 and AlCl3?
Aluminium chloride has ionc bonds; nitrogen molecule has covalent bond.
What is the electronegativity difference in an Al Cl bond in the compound Aluminum Chloride AlCl3?
1.55

What is meant by anhydrous AlCl3?
anhydrous means without water and anhydrous AlCl3 means, AlCl3 is hydrated in water therefore anhydrous AlCl3 is used.
Why does alcl3 exist as al2cl6 molecule n discuss shape of its molecule?
First, draw an AlCl3 molecule, in dot-structure. You will see that in the molecule, Aluminum has only 6 electrons, 3 of which are shared with the chlorine atoms. It needs 2 more electrons to become more stable (8 electrons in the outer shell is usually stable). Now look at the chlorine atom in the AlCl3 molecule.It has 8 electrons, and thus, it is somewhat "stable". If a Chlorine atom from ANOTHER AlCl3 molecule formed a dative bond with the Aluminum atom(a dative bond is a covalent bond where both shared electrons come from just one species. In this case, both electrons come from the chlorine atom), this Al atom would now have 8 electrons as well. That is why AlCl3 exists as a dimer- as Al2Cl6 . It's structure is shown in this picture.
Is alcl3 an electrolyte?
Yes, AlCl3 is a strong electrolyte.
Is CO SO2 AlCl3 or NO a nonpolar molecule?
AlCl3
What are the products when these react AlCl3 and HNO3 and AgNO3?
alcl3+hno3
