A

`CO_3^(2-)`

B

`CO_2`

C

`CS_2`

D

`BeCl_2`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Except `CO_3^(2-)` other choice `CO_2, CS_2 and BeCl_2` have sp hybridization and shows the linear structure while `CO_3^(2-)` have `sp^3` hybridization and show the non linear structure because `sp^3` generate tetrahedral structure.
