Q. Which one of the following is a correct set with respect to molecule, hybridization and shape?

EAMCETEAMCET 2003

Solution:

$ \text{BeC}{{\text{l}}_{\text{2}}} $ has only 2 bond pair electrons. So, its hybridisation will be sp and structure is linear. In $ \text{BC}{{\text{l}}_{\text{3}}} $ there is 3 bond pair of electrons. So, its hybridisation is $ s{{p}^{2}} $ and bond angle is $ \text{12}{{\text{0}}^{\text{o}}} $ and its shape is trigonal planar.
