The number of lone pairs of electrons present on the central atom of `CIF_3` is

A

one

B

two

C

four

D

three

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
In `CIG_(3)`
Hybridized state of `Cl` is `H=(1)/(2)(V+X-C+A)`
`H=(1)/(2)(7+3)=5impliessp^(3)d`
`b.p.=3,1.p.=2` and shape is `T`-shape
