Number of lone pairs of electrons in P_(4) molecule = …….. .

The decreasing order of the repulsive interaction of electron pair is (here,lp=lone pair,bp=bond pair)

The number of of P-O bonds and lone pair of electrons present in P_(4)O_(6) molecule

The approximate shape of a molecule can often be predicted by using what is called the valence-shell electron-pair repulsion (VSEPR) model. Electrons in bonds and in lone pairs can be thought of a ''charge cloud'' that repel one another nad stay as far apart as possible, thus causing molecules to assume specific shapes. The repulsive interactions of electron pairs decrease in the order: Lone pair - Lone pair gt Lone pair - Bond pair gt Bond pair - Bond pair These repulsive effects result in deviations from idealised shapes and alteration in bond angles in molecules. Which among the following molecules have sp^(3)d hybridization with one lone pair of electron on the central atom? (P) SF_(4) (Q) [PCl_(4)]^(+) (R) XeO_(2)F_(2) (S) ClOF_(3)
