The set of molecules in which the central atom is not obeying the octet rule is
- A
- B
- C
- D
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The octet rule was given by Lewis. It states that elements tend to bond in such a way that each atom has eight electrons in its valence shell, giving it the same electronic configuration as a noble gas. Among the given options SF6(12 e), PCl5(10e), XeF2(10 e)…
