Which of the following is a linear molecule?
- A \(\mathrm{BeCl}_2\)
- B \(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}\)
- C \(\mathrm{SO}_2\)
- D \(\mathrm{CH}_4\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(\mathrm{BeCl}_2\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\mathrm{Cl}-\mathrm{Be}-\mathrm{Cl}\) In \(\mathrm{BeCl}_2, \mathrm{Be}\) is sp-hybridised, hence it has linear structure.
