What is the boiling point of SnCl4?

What is sccl2?

Sncl2 is more stable than sncl4. According, to the rule more charge has higher tendency to polarise the surrounding atom which tends to introduce a covalent character in molecule. sncl4 tends to have higher positive charge and its size is smaller. Hence, sncl4 is covelant and sncl2 is iocnic and stable.
