A question about the isomers of SF4Cl2
« on: March 10, 2005, 02:04:56 PM »
Hi Ii have been trying to find the structural isomers of SF4Cl2 and also I would like to know how can you tell these isomers apart (based on melting point,  and why one isomer is better to use instead of the other)

thank you

Why would one isomer be better then an other? I don't understand.
Most Common Suggestions I Make on the Forums.
1. Start by writing a balanced chemical equation.
2. Don't confuse thermodynamic stability with chemical reactivity.
3. Forum Supports LaTex

maybe in the case of catalysis, whereby one configuration is favoured over the other
