How many valence electrons does ICl4 have?

Answer 1

Valency of carbon is 4.Valency of chlorine is 1

Answer 2

I = 7 valance electrons

4Cl = 28 valance electrons.

----------------------------------------total

= 35 electrons

================

Each chlorine gets six electrons in three lone pairs around each atom

= 18 electrons

27 - 18 = 9

These 9 electrons must be put around the iodine is some fashion which will leave one unpaired.

Answer 3

Each atom effectively has 8 valence electrons. Refer to the related link for a Lewis dot structure for carbon tetrachloride, CCl4.

Answer 4

The covalent bonds between the carbon atom and chlorine atoms gives each atom 8 valence electrons. Refer to the related link for a Lewis dot structure for CCl4.

Answer 5

ICl4- has 36 valence electrons. Each chlorine contributes 7 valence electrons, and iodine contributes 7 valence electrons but also has a negative charge, adding an extra electron.

Answer 6

36... I have no idea why but its 36 lol
