`SF_(2),SF_(4)` and `SF_(6)` have the hybridisation at sulphur atom respectively as .

A

`sp^(2),sp^(3),sp^(2)d^2`

B

`sp^(3),sp^(3),sp^(3)d^(2)`

C

`sp^(3),sp^(3)d,sp^(3)d^(2)`

D

`sp^(3),spd^(2),d^(2)sp^(3)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
To determine type of hybridisation, count `sigma ` bonds + (`to`) coordinate bonds + lone pair on central atoms + single electron
This number comes out be
`2 to sp` hybridisation
`3 to sp^(2)` hybridizat ion
`4 to sp^(3) ` or `dsp^(2)` hybridisation
`5 to sp^(3)` d hybridizat ion
`6 to sp^(3) d^(2)` or `d^(2)sp^(3)` hybridizat ion
`SF_(2): F-overset(..)underset(..)(S)-F`
Total number `=4 to sp^(3)` hybridization

Total number `=5 to sp^(3)d` hybridization

Total number =`6 to sp^(3)d^(2)` hybridisation
