Based on VSEPR theory, the number of 90 degree F-Br-F angles in `BrF_(5),` is

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
0
Due to repulsion between bond pairs and lone pair, the Br atom is raised slightly above the plane of the four basal F atoms. As a rsult, all the F-Br-F bond angles decrease from `90^(@)` to `84.8^(@)`.
