Xenon flurides are very good oxidisng and fluorinating agents. They also act as `F^(-)` donors and acceptors. When `XeF_(4)` donates its fluoride to `SbF_(5)`, then the states of hybridisation of central atom of cationic part ad anionic part of product are:

A

`sp^(3)d,sp^(3)d^(2)`

B

`sp^(3)d^(2),sp^(3)d`

C

`sp^(3)d^(2),sp^(3)d^(2)`

D

`dsp^(2),sp^(3)`

The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to determine the hybridization states of the central atoms in the cationic part (Xenon trifluoride, \(XeF_3^+\)) and the anionic part (Antimony hexafluoride, \(SbF_6^-\)) after the reaction between \(XeF_4\) and \(SbF_5\). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Reaction**: - Xenon tetrafluoride (\(XeF_4\)) donates a fluoride ion to antimony pentafluoride (\(SbF_5\)). - The products formed are \(XeF_3^+\) (cation) and \(SbF_6^-\) (anion). 2. **Determine the Oxidation States**: - In \(XeF_4\), Xenon has an oxidation state of +4. - After donating a fluoride ion, in \(XeF_3^+\), the oxidation state of Xenon becomes +3. - In \(SbF_5\), Antimony has an oxidation state of +5. - After accepting a fluoride ion, in \(SbF_6^-\), the oxidation state of Antimony becomes +6. 3. **Calculate the Hybridization of \(XeF_3^+\)**: - Xenon starts with 8 valence electrons. - It loses 1 electron due to the +3 oxidation state: \(8 - 1 = 7\). - It is bonded to 3 fluoride ions (3 bond pairs). - The total electron pairs = Bond pairs + Lone pairs = 3 + 2 (from the remaining 4 electrons). - The hybridization can be determined using the formula: \[ \text{Hybridization} = \text{Number of electron pairs} \] - Total pairs = 5 (3 bond pairs + 2 lone pairs) → \(sp^3d\). 4. **Calculate the Hybridization of \(SbF_6^-\)**: - Antimony has 5 valence electrons. - It gains 1 electron due to the -1 charge: \(5 + 1 = 6\). - It is bonded to 6 fluoride ions (6 bond pairs). - The total electron pairs = 6 bond pairs + 0 lone pairs = 6. - The hybridization can be determined as: \[ \text{Hybridization} = \text{Number of electron pairs} \] - Total pairs = 6 → \(sp^3d^2\). 5. **Final Answer**: - The hybridization of the central atom in the cationic part (\(XeF_3^+\)) is \(sp^3d\). - The hybridization of the central atom in the anionic part (\(SbF_6^-\)) is \(sp^3d^2\). ### Conclusion: The states of hybridization of the central atom of the cationic part and anionic part of the products are \(sp^3d\) for \(XeF_3^+\) and \(sp^3d^2\) for \(SbF_6^-\) respectively.

The IUPAC name of [Co(H_2NCH_2CH_2NH_2)_2 (NO_2)NO_5 is bis(enthane-1,2-diamine) dinitrito-N-cobalt(III) nitrate.It follows the following rules that. (a)Cation is named first followed by anion. (b) Ligands are named in an alphabetical order before the name of the central atom/ion. ( c)Name of anionic ligands end in "o" (ex.chlorido) those of neutral (and if cation) ligands are the same except aqua for H_2O , ammine for NH_3 etc. (d)Prefixes mono,di,tri,etc.are used to indicate the number of individual ligand.When the name of the ligands include a numerical prefix, then terms bis, tris, tetrakis are used. (e)Oxidation state of the metal is indicated by Roman numeral in parenthesis. (f) For cationic and neutral complexes, the metal is named same as the element and for anionic complex, the name of metal ends with suffix-ate.For some metals, the Latin names are used in the complex anions , e.g., ferrate for Fe, argentate for silver etc. The IUPAC name of Fe_4[Fe(CN)_6]_3 is :
