In which of the following pairs , the two species are not isostructural ? `PCl_4^(+)` and `SiCl_4`, `PF_5` and `BrF_5`, `AlF_6^(3-)` and `SF_6`, `CO_3^(2-)` and `NO_3^(-)`

Options

A. `CO_3^(2-) and NO_3^-`
B. `PCl_4^+ and SiCl_4`
C. `PF_5 and BrF_5`
D. `AlF_6^(2-) and SF_6`

Answer

C

Explanation

`PF_5` is `sp^3d` hybridized and the shape is trigonal bipyramidal, whereas `BrF_3` is `sp^3d^2` hybridized and the shape is square pyramidal.
