Molecular shape of ` SF_4, CF_4` and ` XeF_4` are :

A

the same with ` 2, 0` and `1` lone pair of electron respectively

B

the same with ` 1, 1` and `1` lone pair of electron respectively

C

differebnt with ` 0, 1` and `2` lone pairs of electron respectively

D

different with ` 1, 0` and `2` lone pairs of electron respectively

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`SF_4` has ` sp^2` d-hybridisation with one lone paire , `CF_4` has `sp^3` -hybridisation with no lone pair and ` XeF_4` has `sp^4d^2` -hybridisation with two lone pairs .
