Question: What is the correct mode of hybridization of the central atom in the following compounds : $ NO_2^{+},S{F_{4,}}PF_6^{-} $
[AMU 1999]
Options:
A) $ sp^{2},sp^{3},d^{2}sp^{3} $
B) $ sp^{3},sp^{3}d^{2},sp^{3}d^{2} $
C) $ sp,sp^{3}d,sp^{3}d^{2} $
D) $ sp,sp^{2},sp^{3} $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: C
Solution:
Atom/Ion Hybridisation $ NO_2^{+} $ sp
$ SF_4 $ $ sp^{3}d $ with one lone pair of electron
$ PF_6^{-} $ $ sp^{3}d^{2} $
