The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze the given compounds and evaluate the statements provided. Let's go through each statement step by step. ### Step 1: Identify the Hybridization of Each Compound 1. **NH₃ (Ammonia)**: - Structure: Pyramidal - Hybridization: sp³ 2. **PH₃ (Phosphine)**: - Structure: Pyramidal - Hybridization: No hybridization (p-orbital) 3. **H₂S (Hydrogen Sulfide)**: - Structure: Bent - Hybridization: No hybridization (p-orbital) 4. **SO₂ (Sulfur Dioxide)**: - Structure: Bent - Hybridization: sp² 5. **SO₃ (Sulfur Trioxide)**: - Structure: Trigonal planar - Hybridization: sp² 6. **BF₃ (Boron Trifluoride)**: - Structure: Trigonal planar - Hybridization: sp² 7. **PCl₃ (Phosphorus Trichloride)**: - Structure: Pyramidal - Hybridization: sp³ 8. **IF₇ (Iodine Heptafluoride)**: - Structure: Pentagonal bipyramidal - Hybridization: sp³d³ 9. **P₄ (White Phosphorus)**: - Structure: Tetrahedral - Hybridization: sp³ 10. **H₂ (Hydrogen)**: - Structure: Linear - Hybridization: No hybridization (s-orbital) ### Step 2: Evaluate Each Statement 1. **Statement A**: "Three molecules out of the given compounds involve sp² hybridization." - **Correct**: SO₂, SO₃, and BF₃ are sp² hybridized. 2. **Statement B**: "Three molecules are hypervalent compounds." - **Correct**: SO₂, SO₃, and IF₇ are hypervalent. 3. **Statement C**: "Six molecules out of the above compounds are non-planar in nature." - **Incorrect**: - Non-planar compounds: NH₃, PH₃, PCl₃, IF₇, and P₄ (Total: 5) - Planar compounds: H₂S, SO₂, SO₃, BF₃, H₂ (Total: 5) - Therefore, only 5 compounds are non-planar. 4. **Statement D**: "Two molecules out of the given compounds involve d-pi-pi bonding as well as p-pi-pi bonding." - **Correct**: SO₂ and SO₃ exhibit both types of bonding. ### Conclusion The incorrect statement is **Statement C**, which claims that six molecules are non-planar. In reality, only five are non-planar. ### Final Answer The incorrect statement is: **C. Six molecules out of the above compounds are non-planar in nature.** ---
