The shape and hybridisation of some xenon oxyfluorides are given. Choose the wrong set.

A

`XeOF_2 to `T-Shape-`sp_3d`

B

`XeOF_4 to` Square pyramidal-`sp_3d_2`

C

`XeO_2F_2 to` Distortedtrigonalbipyramidal-`sp^3d`

D

`XeO_3F_2 to` Octahedral-`sp_3d`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

The structure of `XeO_3F_2` -
No. of lone pair of Xe = 0 and
no. of bond pair = 16
Hybridisation of `Xe = sp_3d`
Hence, shape of `XeO_3F_2` should be trigonal bipyramidal and not octahedral.
