The hybridization of central atoms of co...

The hybridization of central atoms of compounds A, B, C and D are `sp^(3)d, sp^(3), sp^(2) and sp` respectively. If compounds A and D have same shape like `I_(3)^(-)` and compounds B and C have same shape like water structure. Then calculate value of "P+Q+R+S", where P, Q, R, and S are number of lone pairs on central atoms of compounds A, B, C and D respectively.

The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to determine the number of lone pairs on the central atoms of compounds A, B, C, and D based on their hybridization and the shapes provided. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Hybridization and Shapes:** - Compound A: Hybridization = sp³d (Shape: I₃⁻) - Compound B: Hybridization = sp³ (Shape: Water) - Compound C: Hybridization = sp² (Shape: Water) - Compound D: Hybridization = sp (Shape: I₃⁻) 2. **Determine the Lone Pairs for Compound A (sp³d):** - The I₃⁻ ion has a linear shape with three lone pairs on the central atom (Iodine). - Therefore, for compound A, P (the number of lone pairs) = 3. 3. **Determine the Lone Pairs for Compound B (sp³):** - Water (H₂O) has a bent shape with two lone pairs on the central atom (Oxygen). - Therefore, for compound B, Q (the number of lone pairs) = 2. 4. **Determine the Lone Pairs for Compound C (sp²):** - The sp² hybridized atom in a water-like structure has one lone pair (for example, in a molecule like SO₂). - Therefore, for compound C, R (the number of lone pairs) = 1. 5. **Determine the Lone Pairs for Compound D (sp):** - The sp hybridized atom in a linear structure (like in I₃⁻) has no lone pairs. - Therefore, for compound D, S (the number of lone pairs) = 0. 6. **Calculate the Total:** - Now we add the values of P, Q, R, and S: \[ P + Q + R + S = 3 + 2 + 1 + 0 = 6 \] ### Final Answer: The value of \( P + Q + R + S \) is **6**.
