In a regular octahedral molecule `MX_(6)` the number of `X - M - X` bonds at `180^(@)` is

A

three

B

two

C

six

D

four

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
In octanhedral `MX_(6)` molecule, all the six `M-X` bonds are at angle of `90^(@)`. This means that the `X-M-X` angle is `180^(@)` and the number of the `X-M-X` bonds is three.
