Germanium tetrafluoride is a noncombustible, strongly fuming gas with a garlic-like odor. It reacts with water to form hydrofluoric acid and germanium dioxide. Decomposition occurs above 1000 °C. [5] Reaction of GeF 4 with fluoride sources produces GeF 5 − anions with octahedral coordination around Ge atom due to polymerization. [6]
Germanium difluoride forms orthorhombic crystals with a space group P2 1 2 1 2 1 (No. 19), Pearson symbol oP12, and lattice constants a = 0.4682 nm, b = 0.5178 nm, c = 0.8312 nm, Z = 4 (four structure units per unit cell). Its crystal structure is characterized by strong polymeric chains composed by GeF 3 pyramids.
Xenon tetrafluoride is a colorless crystalline solid that sublimes at 117 °C. Its structure was determined by both NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography in 1963. [ 6 ] [ 7 ] The structure is square planar , as has been confirmed by neutron diffraction studies. [ 8 ]
O 2 F 2 precipitates as a brown solid upon the UV irradiation of a mixture of liquid O 2 and F 2 at −196 °C. [8] It also only appears to be stable below −160 °C. [9] The general method of preparation of many oxygen fluorides is a gas-phase electric discharge in cold containers including O 2 F 2. [10] O 2 + F 2 → O 2 F 2 (electric ...
Germanium tetrabromide is the inorganic compound with the formula GeBr 4.It is a colorless solid that melts near room temperature. It can be formed by treating solid germanium with bromine, or by treating a germanium-copper mixture with bromine: [2]
Spartan is a molecular modelling and computational chemistry application from Wavefunction. [2] It contains code for molecular mechanics, semi-empirical methods, ab initio models, [3] density functional models, [4] post-Hartree–Fock models, [5] and thermochemical recipes including G3(MP2) [6] and T1. [7]
A notable derivative of GeCl 4 is germanium dioxide.In the manufacture of optical fibers, silicon tetrachloride, SiCl 4, and germanium tetrachloride, GeCl 4, are introduced with oxygen into a hollow glass preform, which is carefully heated to allow for oxidation of the reagents to their respective oxides and formation of a glass mixture.
Xenon oxytetrafluoride (Xe O F 4) is an inorganic chemical compound.It is an unstable colorless liquid [2] [3] with a melting point of −46.2 °C (−51.2 °F; 227.0 K) [4] that can be synthesized by partial hydrolysis of XeF
