Observe the following statements:
i. According to VSEPR theory, \(\mathrm{ClF}_3\) and \(\mathrm{SO}_2\) are shown \(A B_3 E\) and \(A B_2 E\) type molecules respectively.
ii. \(\mathrm{SF}_4\) has "See-saw" shape.
iii. \(\mathrm{HgCl}_2\) and \(\mathrm{PbCl}_2\) have same shape.
The statements which are not correct are
- A i, ii only
- B i, iii only
- C i, ii, iii
- D ii, iii only
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) i, iii only
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Statements (i) and (iii) are not correct. Their correct explanation are as follows: (i) According to VSEPR theory \(\mathrm{ClF}_3\) has 3 bond pairs and 2 lone pairs thus it is \(A B_3 E_2\) type molecule whereas \(\mathrm{SO}_2\) has \(2 \sigma\) bond pairs and one lone pair…
