In which of the following pairs, the central atoms have the same number of lone pairs of electrons?
- A \(\mathrm{PCl}_5, \mathrm{BrF}_5\)
- B \(\mathrm{XeF}_2, \mathrm{ICl}\)
- C \(\mathrm{XeF}_4, \mathrm{ClO}_4^{-}\)
- D \(\mathrm{SCl}_4, \mathrm{CH}_4\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(\mathrm{XeF}_2, \mathrm{ICl}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Both \(\mathrm{XeF}_2\) and ICl molecule have three lone pairs of electron on central atom. Hence, in \(\mathrm{XeF}_2\) three lone pairs are present Hence, in ICl three lone pairs are present.
