Which of the following interhalgon is not correctly matched with the given shape?

Options

A. `BrF_(3)`-Pyramidal
B. `IF_(7)`-Pentagonal bipyamidal
C. `BrF_(5)`-Square pyradmdal
D. `CIF_(3)`-T-shpaed

Answer

1

Explanation

The geometery and shapes of the interhalogens are intersting .The `Br` atom in bromine trifloride `(BrF_(3))` is bonded to three `F` atoms (thus three bonding pairs) and has two lone pairs.which by the `VSEPR` theory are placed at the species of a trigonal bipyamid.The molecule has bent T-shape as shown below:

The geometerically and shapes of `CIF_(3)` and `IF_(3)` are similar.
In odine pentalfluoride ,the `I` atom is bonded to `5` fluorine atoms (thus five bonding pains) and has one lone pair, which are arranged at the apices of a regular octahedron. The geometries and shapes of `BrF_(5)` are similar.
The fourteen valency electrons in iodine heptafluoride `(IF_(7))` are arranged in pairs at the apices of a pentagoal bipyramid.
