The correct Answer is:
To determine the correct statement about the species \( CO_2 \), \( N_3^- \), \( NO_2^+ \), and \( I_3^- \), we need to analyze each species in terms of hybridization and molecular shape. ### Step 1: Analyze \( CO_2 \) - **Central Atom**: Carbon (C) - **Bonding Pairs**: 2 (double bonds with two oxygen atoms) - **Lone Pairs**: 0 - **Hybridization**: The total number of electron pairs (bonding + lone) is 2, which corresponds to \( sp \) hybridization. - **Shape**: Linear ### Step 2: Analyze \( N_3^- \) - **Central Atom**: The central nitrogen atom in the linear structure. - **Bonding Pairs**: 2 (triple bond between two nitrogen atoms and a single bond with the third nitrogen) - **Lone Pairs**: 0 - **Hybridization**: The total number of electron pairs is 2, leading to \( sp \) hybridization. - **Shape**: Linear ### Step 3: Analyze \( NO_2^+ \) - **Central Atom**: Nitrogen (N) - **Bonding Pairs**: 2 (double bond with one oxygen and a single bond with the other) - **Lone Pairs**: 0 - **Hybridization**: The total number of electron pairs is 2, resulting in \( sp \) hybridization. - **Shape**: Linear ### Step 4: Analyze \( I_3^- \) - **Central Atom**: Iodine (I) - **Bonding Pairs**: 2 (bonded to two other iodine atoms) - **Lone Pairs**: 3 - **Hybridization**: The total number of electron pairs is 5 (2 bonding + 3 lone), leading to \( sp^3d \) hybridization. - **Shape**: Linear (due to the arrangement of lone pairs in equatorial positions) ### Step 5: Summary of Findings - \( CO_2 \): Linear, \( sp \) hybridized - \( N_3^- \): Linear, \( sp \) hybridized - \( NO_2^+ \): Linear, \( sp \) hybridized - \( I_3^- \): Linear, \( sp^3d \) hybridized ### Conclusion The correct statement is that all species are linear, but only \( CO_2 \), \( N_3^- \), and \( NO_2^+ \) have \( sp \) hybridization on their central atom.
