The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the given compounds involve p-pi d-pi bonding, we need to analyze each option based on the presence of vacant d orbitals in the atom that can accept the lone pair of electrons. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Understand p-pi d-pi Bonding p-pi d-pi bonding occurs when a p orbital from one atom overlaps with a vacant d orbital from another atom to form a bond. For this to happen, the atom receiving the lone pair must have vacant d orbitals. ### Step 2: Analyze Each Option **Option 1: SiH3-Nitrogen** - Nitrogen has a lone pair of electrons. - Silicon has the electronic configuration: 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p² 3d⁰. - Silicon has vacant d orbitals (3d), so it can accept the lone pair from nitrogen. - **Conclusion**: p-pi d-pi bonding occurs. **Option 2: CH3-Nitrogen** - Nitrogen has a lone pair of electrons. - Carbon has the electronic configuration: 1s² 2s² 2p². - Carbon does not have vacant d orbitals. - **Conclusion**: p-pi d-pi bonding does not occur. **Option 3: CCl3-** - Carbon has a lone pair of electrons. - Chlorine has the electronic configuration: 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁵ 3d⁰. - Chlorine has vacant d orbitals, so it can accept the lone pair from carbon. - **Conclusion**: p-pi d-pi bonding occurs. **Option 4: CF3-** - Carbon has a lone pair of electrons. - Fluorine has the electronic configuration: 1s² 2s² 2p⁵. - Fluorine does not have vacant d orbitals. - **Conclusion**: p-pi d-pi bonding does not occur. ### Final Answer The compounds that involve p-pi d-pi bonding are: - **Option 1: SiH3-Nitrogen** - **Option 3: CCl3-**
