Question
F2 is formed by reaccting by reaching K2MnF6 with :
Options
A.SbF5
B.MnF3
C.KSbF6
D.MnF4
Solution
SbF5, being the stronger lewis acid, displaces the weaker one (MnF4) from its salt. MnF4, being unstable, decomposes to give 4 MnF4 and fluorine.
K2MnF6 + 2SbF5 → 2SbF6 + MnF4
Unstable
MnF4 → MnF3 +
F2
K2MnF6 + 2SbF5 → 2SbF6 + MnF4
Unstable
MnF4 → MnF3 +
