If CdI2 is pink in colour, the CdCl2 will be '________' coloured. — Chemical Bonding Chemistry Question

💡 Solution & Explanation

In CdI2, Pink colour is due to polarization of I^- by Cd^2+ has pseudonoble gas configuration. In CdCl2, extent of polarization of Cl^- by Cd^2+ is relatively less, hence specific colour cannot be predicted.
