SF6
Sulfur hexafluoride or sulphur hexafluoride (British English, British spelling) is an inorganic compound with the formula SF6. It is a colorless, odorless, non-flammable, and non-toxic gas. has an octahedral geometry, consisting of six fluorine atoms attached to a central sulfur atom. It is a hypervalent molecule. Typical for a nonpolar gas, is poorly soluble in water but quite soluble in nonpolar organic solvents. It has a density of 6.12 g/L at sea level conditions, considerably higher than the density of air (1.225 g/L). It is generally transported as a liquefied gas, liquefied compressed gas. is 23,500 times more potent than as a greenhouse gas but exists in relatively minor concentrations in the atmosphere. Its concentration in Earth's troposphere reached 10.63 parts per notation, parts per trillion (ppt) in 2021, rising at 0.39 ppt/year. The increase over the prior 40 years was driven in large part by the expanding electric power sector, including fugitive ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Disulfur Decafluoride
Disulfur decafluoride is a chemical compound with the formula . It was discovered in 1934 by Kenneth Denbigh, Denbigh and Whytlaw-Gray. Each sulfur atom of the molecule is octahedral, and surrounded by five fluorine atoms and one sulfur atom. The two sulfur atoms are connected by a single bond. In the molecule, the oxidation state of each sulfur atoms is +5, but their Valence (chemistry), valency is 6 (they are hexavalent). is highly toxic, with toxicity four times that of phosgene. It is a colorless liquid with a burnt match smell similar to sulfur dioxide. Production Disulfur decafluoride is produced by photolysis of : : Disulfur decafluoride arises by the decomposition of sulfur hexafluoride. It is produced by the electrical decomposition of sulfur hexafluoride ()—an essentially inert Electrical insulation, insulator used in high voltage systems such as transmission lines, Electrical substation, substations and switchgear. is also made during the production of .
