Vedclass · Answer

(C) To determine the hybridization of the central atom,we use the formula: $	ext{Steric Number} = \frac{1}{2} [V + M - C + A]$,where $V$ is the number of valence electrons of the central atom,$M$ is the number of monovalent atoms,$C$ is the cationic charge,and $A$ is the anionic charge.$1$. For $NO_2^+$:Central atom $N$ $(V=5)$,$M=0$,$C=1$,$A=0$.$	ext{Steric Number} = \frac{1}{2} [5 + 0 - 1 + 0] = 2$. Hybridization is $sp$.$2$. For $SF_4$:Central atom $S$ $(V=6)$,$M=4$,$C=0$,$A=0$.$	ext{Steric Number} = \frac{1}{2} [6 + 4 - 0 + 0] = 5$. Hybridization is $sp^3d$.$3$. For $PF_6^-$:Central atom $P$ $(V=5)$,$M=6$,$C=0$,$A=1$.$	ext{Steric Number} = \frac{1}{2} [5 + 6 - 0 + 1] = 6$. Hybridization is $sp^3d^2$.Thus,the correct hybridization modes are $sp$,$sp^3d$,and $sp^3d^2$.

$A. NO_3^-$	$1. sp^3$
$B. NH_2^-$	$2. sp$
$C. SCN^-$	$3. sp^3d$
$D. ICl_2^-$	$4. sp^2$
