Hybridization and shape of `BrF_5` is

A

`sp^3d`, Trigonal bipyramidal

B

`sp^3 d^2` Trigonal bipyramidal

C

`dsp^2`, square planar

D

`sp^3 d^2`, square pyramidal

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
In `BrF_5`, Bromine has `sp^3 d^2` hybridization, square pyramidal shape due to the presence of 1 lone pair of electron.
