In the valence bond theory, hybridisation of orbitals is an integral part of bond formation.Hybridisation consists of mixing or linear combination of the "pure" atomic orbitals in such a way as to form new hybrid orbitals such as `sp, sp^2, sp^3, sp^3d , sp^3d^2` etc.
Now answer the following questions :
Which one of the following molecular geometrices (i.e. shapes) is not possible for the `sp^3d^3` hybridisation ?

A

Capped octahedral

B

Octahedral

C

Square planar

D

Square pyramidral
