Write down the formula of the noble gas ...

Write down the formula of the noble gas species which are isostructural with (a) `ICI_(4)^(-)` , (b)`I Br_(2)^(-)` , ( c)`BrO_(3)^(-)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
The species which have same number of electrons are called isoelectronic.The species which have same structure and hybridisation are callled isostructural.
(a)`ICI_(4)^(-)` and `XeF_(4)` are square planar with `sp^(3)d^(2)` hybridisation.
(b)`IBr_(2)^(-)` and `XeF_(2)` are linear with `sp^(3)d` hybridisation.
( c)`BrO_(3)^(-)` and `XeO_(3)` are pyramidal with `sp^(3)` hybridisation.
