Question: In which of following there exists a $ p\pi -d\pi $ bonding [AFMC 2001]
Options:
A) Diamond
B) Graphite
C) Dimethyl amine
D) Trisilylamine
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: D
Solution:
We know that trisilylamine is $ sp^{2} $ -hybridized therefore $ p\pi -d\pi $ bonding is possible due to the availability of vacant d-orbitals with silicon.
