The species having pyramidal shape is

A

`SO_3`

B

`BrF_3`

C

`SiO_3^(2-)`

D

`Os F_2`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
In VSEPR theory, a double bond is counted as bond pair. no of bond pairs around the atral S atom=2(S- F) + 1 (SO) =3 number of electron pairs around S = (6+2+0)/2=4
number of lone pairs 4-3= 1
Now according to VSEPR theory, a molecule pyramidal
