Question

(1) nitrogen trifluoride (2) boron trifluoride (3) chlorine trifluoride

Which of the above molecules have the same hybridization for the central atom?

Group of answer choices

(1) and (2)

all of these molecules have the same hybridization for the central atom

(2) and (3)

(1) and (3)

none of these molecules have the same hybridization for the central atom

Answer 1

Solution - NE CIFB BF3 nitrogen tri fluoride boron trikluoride chlorine tsi Aluoride to find Hybridisation: - elektrom count = Number of sigma bond + Number of double bond & Number lone pair Count | Hybridisation. SP sp2 Sp3 spd • For : ZU F - N-F count = 3 sigma 5 ond t I tone pair Count = 4 . NE2 has sp3 hybridisation For BF3 count = 3 sigma bond F Count = 3 - • .. Bfa has sp2 hybridisetion. For CIF count = 3 sigma bond & a lone pair counts 5 a clip has sped hybridisation. .: none of these molecules have the same hybridisation for Central otom.
