What is structure of Beryllium chloride ?

Beryllium chloride a colorless crystal. it is deliquescent and soluble in water and ethanol. And its melting, boiling point are 405 °C ,520 °C respectively. Beryllium is a discrete molecule (BeCl2-dicoordinate) in gaseous state but in solid state it    forms a 1-dimensional chain (tetra-coordinated) beryllium via chlorine bridges bond. It is a as Lewis acid monomeric (BeCl2) form and is used as a catalyst for (FCR) Friedel-Crafts reactions.

What is "Zeolite's" ?

 Zeolite ia Sodium, Potassium salt of alumino silicate. The general formula of Zeolite is as  

                                M x/n [(AlO2)x (SiO2)] · mH2O.

                     Where M= Na+, K+, NH4+, Li+, Ca+2, Mg+2

                            Examples: Na2[(AlO2)12 (SiO2)]·27H2O

Zeolite’s have truncated Octahedral structure.

Zeolite’s are molecular sieves (Chalni) , are used to removed hardness of water and sulphate unit from detergents.
