How many types of `F-S-F` bonds are present in `SF_4`?

A

`5`

B

`4`

C

`2`

D

`3`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`SF_4` has trigonal bipyramidal geometry but seesaw shape due to a lone pair.

It has two types of bonds: axial bonds `(164pm)` and equatorial bonds `(155pm)`. Note that axial bonds are longer than equatorial bonds.
