The molecules having the same hybridization, shape and number of lone pairs of electrons are

Options

A. `SeF_(4), XeO_(2)F_(2)`
B. `SF_(4), XeF_(2)`
C. `XeOF_(4), TeF_(4)`
D. `SeCl_(4),XeF_(4)`

Answer

A

Explanation

`SeF_(4) and XeO_(2)F_(2)` are both `sp^(3)d` hybridized, trigonal bipyramidal and see-saw shaped with 1 lone pair of electrons each.
`SF_(4)` has 1 lone pair, `XeF_(2)` has 3 lone pair. `XeOF_(4)` is square pyramidal with 1 lone pair, `TeF_(4)` is see- saw shaped with 1 lone pair, `SeCl_(4)` has see-saw shape with 1 lone pair, `XeF_(4)` has planar shape with 2 lone pairs.
