What is the hydridisation of O in `Cl_2O`?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine the hybridization of oxygen in the compound \( Cl_2O \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Determine the Valence Electrons - **Chlorine (Cl)** has 7 valence electrons (group 17). - **Oxygen (O)** has 6 valence electrons (group 16). ### Step 2: Draw the Lewis Structure - In \( Cl_2O \), oxygen acts as the central atom. ...
