The molecule which has pyramidal shape is

A

`SO_(3)`

B

`BrF_(3)`

C

`SiO_(3)^(2-)`

D

`OSF_(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Hybridisation of `underset("Centralatom")underset(uarr)overset(..)(OSF_(2)`
`rArr (1)/(2) (6 + 2+0) =4 =sp^(3)`
With one lp of `e^(-')s` it is pyramidal

The molecule which is pyramidal in shape is

The species which has pyramidal shape is

Valence shell electron pair repusin theory (VSEPR) can be used to perdict the approximate shape of molecules. Electrons in bonds and in lone pairs can ve thought of as "charge cloud" that repel one another and stay as far apart possible, thus causing molecules to assume specific shapes. The repulsive interacions of electro paris decrease in the order : Lone pair-lone pair gt Lone pair -bond pair gt Bond pair -bond pair. These replusions effect result in deviations from idealized shapes and alternative in bond angles in molecules. The species which has pyramidal shape is :

The number of molecules with pyramidal shape are : NH_(3), ClF_(3), SO_(3), PCl_(3), XeO_(3), BCl_(3), ClO_(3)^(-), SO_(3)^(2-)
