Give the structure of interhalogen compounds on the basis of hybridisation:
`BrF_(5)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`BrF_(5)` involves `sp^(3)d^(2)` hybridisation of the central atom Br. It has octahedral or square pyramidal geometry with one position occupied by a lone pair. Hybridisation for Br `F_(5)` is as below : `BrF_(5)` : H = 1/2 [7+5] = 6 `rArrsp^(3)d^(2)`
