Vedclass · Answer

(D) $1$. For $BrF_5$: The central atom $Br$ has $7$ valence electrons. It forms $5$ bonds with $F$ and has $1$ lone pair. Steric number = $5 + 1 = 6$,which corresponds to $sp^3d^2$ hybridization. The geometry is square pyramidal. This is correctly matched.$2$. For $XeF_6$: The central atom $Xe$ has $8$ valence electrons. It forms $6$ bonds with $F$ and has $1$ lone pair. Steric number = $6 + 1 = 7$,which corresponds to $sp^3d^3$ hybridization. The geometry is distorted octahedral. This is correctly matched.$3$. For $SF_4$: The central atom $S$ has $6$ valence electrons. It forms $4$ bonds with $F$ and has $1$ lone pair. Steric number = $4 + 1 = 5$,which corresponds to $sp^3d$ hybridization. The geometry is see-saw. This is incorrectly matched.$4$. For $PbCl_2$: $Pb$ is in group $14$. It forms $2$ bonds with $Cl$ and has $1$ lone pair. Steric number = $2 + 1 = 3$,which corresponds to $sp^2$ hybridization. The geometry is bent. This is incorrectly matched.Therefore,sets $I$ and $II$ are correctly matched.
