The sum of the number of lone pair of electrons on each central atom in the following species is
`[TeBr_(6)]^(2-), [BrF_(2)]^(2+), SNF_(3), and [XeF_(3)]^(-)`
(Atomic number : N = 7, F = 9, S = 16, Br = 35, Te = 52, Xe = 54)

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
6
Number of electron pairs around the central atom `=(V+M +-C)/2`

`:.` Sum of number of lone pairs ` = 1 + 2 + 0 + 3 = 6`
