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 `CIF_(3)`
Hybridized state of CI is `H = (1)/(2) (V + X - C + A)`
`H = (1)/(1) (7 + 3) = 5 rArr sp^(2) d`
`b p = 3, I.p = 2` and shape is `T - `shape
