Chemical Bonding And Molecular Structure Question 211
Question: The hybridization in $ PF_3 $ is [DCE 2000]
Options:
A) $ sp^{3} $
B) $ sp^{2} $
C) $ dsp^{3} $
D) $ d^{2}sp^{3} $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: A
Solution:
$ PF_3 $ consist of three bonding pair electrons and one lone pair of electron hence it shows $ sp^{3} $ - hybridization.
