Give the formula of the noble gas species which is isostructural with `BrO_3^-`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

O is more electronegative than Br, So -ve charge is at O-atom. In `BrO_(3)^(-)` there are two Br = 0 bonds and one Br-0 bond. According to YSEPR theory it should by pyramidal . In this there are 8 electrons in the valence shell of central atom and noble gas.
Compound having 8 electrons in valence shell of central atom is `XeO_(3)`. Like `BrO_(3)^(-)` it has three bond pairs and one lone pair so it is also pyramidal.
