Statement 1: `BF_(3)` moleculeis planar while `NF_(3)` is pyramidal.
Statement 2: N atom is smaller in size as compared ot B atom.

A

Statement-1 is Ture , Statement-2 is Ture , Statement-2 is a correct explanation for Statement-1.

B

Statement-1 is Ture , Statement-2 is Ture , Statement-2 is not a correct explanation for Statement-1.

C

Statement-1 is True , Statement-2 is False .

D

Statement-1 is False, Statement-2 is True.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
b
Correct explanation . In `BF_(3)` , hybridisation of B
atom is `sp^(2)` while iin `NF_(3)` , hybridisation o N atom
is `sp^(3)` (of course , N atom is smaller than B because
along a period the size decreasses.)

Statement 1: BF_(3) moleculeis planar while NF_(3) is pyramidal. Statement 2: N atom is smalar in size as compared ot B atom.

Assertion(A) - BF_3 molecule is planar but NF_3 is pyramidal Reason( R )-N atom is smaller than B

The BF_3 is a planar molecule where as NF_3 is pyramidal because :

Statement-1 : Most of the reactions of fluorine are exothermic. Statement-2: Fluorine atom is smaller in size and forms strong bonds with other elements and has low dissociation energy of the F-F bond.

Statement-1 : Fluorine is more electronegative than chlorine. Statement-2 : Fluorine is smaller in size than chlorine.

Statement-1 : Bond dissociation energy of F_(2) is more than Cl_(2) . Statement-2 : Due to smaller size of fluorine there are greater electron repulsions between the F atoms than Cl atoms.

Statement-1: NCl_(3) is hydrolysed by water by NF_(3) is not hydrolysed. Statement-2: N does not has vacant orbital for expansion of octet.
