The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze each molecule given and determine the hybridization, planarity, and non-planarity of each species. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify Hybridization and Steric Number:** - The steric number (SN) is calculated as the number of sigma bonds plus the number of lone pairs on the central atom. - The hybridization can be determined from the steric number: - SN = 2 → sp - SN = 3 → sp² - SN = 4 → sp³ - SN = 5 → sp³d - SN = 6 → sp³d² 2. **Analyze Each Molecule:** - **PCl₅:** - SN = 5 (5 bond pairs, 0 lone pairs) → Hybridization: sp³d - Planarity: Non-planar (trigonal bipyramidal structure) - **BrF₃:** - SN = 5 (3 bond pairs, 2 lone pairs) → Hybridization: sp³d - Planarity: Non-planar (T-shaped structure) - **ICl₂⁻:** - SN = 5 (2 bond pairs, 3 lone pairs) → Hybridization: sp³d - Planarity: Non-planar (linear structure) - **XeF₅⁻:** - SN = 7 (5 bond pairs, 2 lone pairs) → Hybridization: sp³d² - Planarity: Non-planar (square pyramidal structure) - **NO₃⁻:** - SN = 3 (3 bond pairs, 0 lone pairs) → Hybridization: sp² - Planarity: Planar (trigonal planar structure) - **XeO₂F₂:** - SN = 6 (4 bond pairs, 2 lone pairs) → Hybridization: sp³d² - Planarity: Non-planar (square planar structure) - **PCl₄⁺:** - SN = 5 (4 bond pairs, 1 lone pair) → Hybridization: sp³d - Planarity: Non-planar (seesaw structure) - **CH₃⁺:** - SN = 4 (4 bond pairs, 0 lone pairs) → Hybridization: sp³ - Planarity: Planar (tetrahedral structure) 3. **Count Values for a, b, and c:** - **a** (Number of species with sp³ hybridization): - PCl₅, BrF₃, ICl₂⁻, PCl₄⁺, CH₃⁺ → Total = 5 - **b** (Number of species that are planar): - NO₃⁻, CH₃⁺ → Total = 2 - **c** (Number of species that are non-planar): - PCl₅, BrF₃, ICl₂⁻, XeF₅⁻, XeO₂F₂, PCl₄⁺ → Total = 6 4. **Calculate (a + b) / c:** - (a + b) = 5 + 2 = 7 - c = 6 - Therefore, (a + b) / c = 7 / 6 ### Final Answer: \[ \frac{(a + b)}{c} = \frac{7}{6} \]
