Is GeCl4 acidic
Accepted Answer
GeCl4 is a covalent compound and does not contain any hydrogen ions (H+) that can be released in solution. Therefore, it is not considered acidic. It's actually a Lewis acid due to the presence of an empty orbital on the germanium atom, allowing it to accept electron pairs.
