T-shaped Hybridization ClF3arrow p=3+(1/2)[7-3]=5(sp3d) XeOF2arrow p=3+(1/2)[8-4]=5(sp3d) All molecules have 3 Bond pairs and 2 core pairs. XeOF3+arrow p=3+(1/2)[8-3-1]=5(sp3d)

Q. The group of molecules having identical shape is :

$S F_{4}, X e F_{4}, CC l_{4}$

$Cl F_{3}, X e O F_{2}, X e F_{3}^{+}$

$B F_{3}, PC l_{3}, X e O_{3}$

$PC l_{5}, I F_{5}, X e O_{2} F_{2}$

T-shaped
Hybridization
$Cl F_{3} \to p = 3 + \frac{1}{2} [7 - 3] = 5 (s p^{3} d)$
$X e O F_{2} \to p = 3 + \frac{1}{2} [8 - 4] = 5 (s p^{3} d)$
All molecules have 3 Bond pairs and 2 core pairs.
$X e O F_{3}^{+} \to p = 3 + \frac{1}{2} [8 - 3 - 1] = 5 (s p^{3} d)$
