Vedclass · Answer

(C) Statement $a$ is correct: In $NH_3$,the orbital dipole and bond dipoles are in the same direction,whereas in $NF_3$,they oppose each other,resulting in $\mu(NH_3) > \mu(NF_3)$.Statement $b$ is incorrect: $SF_4$ has a see-saw geometry due to $sp^3d$ hybridization with one lone pair.Statement $c$ is correct: According to Fajan's rule,higher oxidation state of the metal ($Sn^{4+}$ vs $Sn^{2+}$) leads to higher polarizing power,making $SnCl_4$ more covalent.Statement $d$ is incorrect: In $In_2SO_4$,the sulfate ion $(SO_4^{2-})$ contains sulfur with an octet that is not expanded beyond the standard valence shell capacity in a way that makes this statement a defining characteristic compared to others; however,$SF_4$ and $In_2SO_4$ claims are chemically flawed in this context. Thus,statements $a$ and $c$ are correct.

Column $I$ (Molecules)	Column $II$ (Number of lone pairs on central atom)
$A. \ NH_3$	$1. \ \text{Two}$
$B. \ H_2O$	$2. \ \text{Three}$
$C. \ XeF_2$	$3. \ \text{Zero}$
$D. \ CH_4$	$4. \ \text{Four}$
	$5. \ \text{One}$

Identify the correct statement$(s)$ from the following:
$a$) Dipole moment of $NH_3$ is more than $NF_3$
$b$) $SF_4$ is square planar
$c$) $SnCl_4$ is more covalent than $SnCl_2$
$d$) $In_2SO_4$ sulphur atom has expanded octet
