The correct Answer is:
To determine which pairs of molecules have the same hybridization, we need to analyze the hybridization of each molecule in the given pairs. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Valence Electrons:** - For each molecule, we first need to determine the number of valence electrons based on the constituent atoms. 2. **Determine the Hybridization:** - Use the formula: \[ \text{Hybridization} = \text{Number of Sigma Bonds} + \text{Number of Lone Pairs} \] - The hybridization types correspond to the following: - 2 = sp - 3 = sp² - 4 = sp³ - 5 = sp³d - 6 = sp³d² 3. **Analyze Each Pair:** - **Pair A: CS3 and C2H6** - **CS3:** Carbon has 4 valence electrons and forms 3 sigma bonds with hydrogen and has no lone pairs. So, hybridization = 3 (sigma bonds) + 0 (lone pairs) = sp². - **C2H6:** Each carbon forms 4 sigma bonds (3 with hydrogens and 1 with another carbon). So, hybridization = 4 (sigma bonds) + 0 (lone pairs) = sp³. - **Conclusion:** Different hybridizations. - **Pair B: NH3 and SO2** - **NH3:** Nitrogen has 5 valence electrons, forms 3 sigma bonds with hydrogen and has 1 lone pair. So, hybridization = 3 + 1 = sp³. - **SO2:** Sulfur has 6 valence electrons, forms 2 double bonds with oxygen (2 sigma bonds) and has 1 lone pair. So, hybridization = 2 + 1 = sp². - **Conclusion:** Different hybridizations. - **Pair C: SO4²- and BF4-** - **SO4²-:** Sulfur has 6 valence electrons, forms 4 sigma bonds with oxygen and has no lone pairs. So, hybridization = 4 + 0 = sp³. - **BF4-:** Boron has 3 valence electrons, forms 4 sigma bonds with fluorine and has no lone pairs. So, hybridization = 4 + 0 = sp³. - **Conclusion:** Same hybridizations. - **Pair D: BF3 and NF3** - **BF3:** Boron has 3 valence electrons, forms 3 sigma bonds with fluorine and has no lone pairs. So, hybridization = 3 + 0 = sp². - **NF3:** Nitrogen has 5 valence electrons, forms 3 sigma bonds with fluorine and has 1 lone pair. So, hybridization = 3 + 1 = sp³. - **Conclusion:** Different hybridizations. ### Final Answer: The pair that has the same hybridization is **SO4²- and BF4-**.
