Q.
Based upon VSEPR theory, match the shape (geometry) of the molecules in List-I with the molecules in List-II and select the most appropriate option
List-I (Shape)
List-II (Molecules)
A
T-shaped
I
$XeF_4$
B
Trigonal planar
II
$SF_4$
C
Square planar
III
$ClF_3$
D
See-saw
IV
$BF_3$
List-I (Shape) | List-II (Molecules) | ||
---|---|---|---|
A | T-shaped | I | $XeF_4$ |
B | Trigonal planar | II | $SF_4$ |
C | Square planar | III | $ClF_3$ |
D | See-saw | IV | $BF_3$ |
Solution:
Correct answer is (b) (A) - (III), (B) - (IV), (C) - (I), (D) - (II)
