The pair of molecules/ions with same geometry but central atoms in them are in different states of hybridization is
- A \(\mathrm{SnCl}_2, \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}\)
- B \(\mathrm{SF}_4, \mathrm{XeF}_4\)
- C \(\mathrm{NH}_4^{+}, \mathrm{CO}_3{ }^{2-}\)
- D \(\mathrm{PF}_5, \mathrm{BrF}_5\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(\mathrm{SnCl}_2, \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Both \(\mathrm{SnCl}_2\) and \(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}\) have bent geometry. The hybridization of central atom in \(\mathrm{SnCl}_2\) is \(\mathrm{sp}^2\) while the hybridization of central atom in \(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}\) is \(\mathrm{sp}^3\).
