The group of molecules having identical ...

The group of molecules having identical shape is:

A

`PCl_(5)IF_(5), XeO_(2)F_(2)`

B

`BF_(3),PCl_(3),XeO_(3)`

C

`SF_(4),XeF_(4),C Cl_(4)`

D

`CIF_(3),XeOF_(2),XeF_(3)^(+)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

`CIF_(3) to ` Hybridisation `=3+(1)/(2)[7-3]=5(sp^(3)d)`
`XeOF_(2) to` Hybridisation `=3+(1)/(2)[8-4]=5(Sp^(3)d)`
`XeF_(3)^(+) to` Hybridation `=3+(1)/(2)[8-2-1]=5(sp^(3)d)`
All molecules have `sp^(3)` hybridzation and 2 lone pairs. Hence all have identical (T-shape).
