What is Sulfur tetrafluoride (SF4) ?
Sulfur tetrafluoride (SF4) is a colorless, toxic gas with a pungent odor, represented by the chemical formula SF4. It’s a covalent compound consisting of one sulfur atom bonded to four fluorine atoms, and it’s a crucial reagent in the synthesis of other fluorinated compounds. SF4 is a polar molecule due to the electronegativity difference between sulfur and fluorine.
