Vedclass · Answer

(A) $I$: $SiH_4$ has $Si$ in $sp^3$ hybridization with $0$ lone pairs,resulting in a tetrahedral geometry. This is correct.$II$: $BeCl_2$ has $Be$ in $sp$ hybridization with $0$ lone pairs,resulting in a linear geometry. The table incorrectly states $sp^2$ and $1$ lone pair.$III$: $SF_4$ has $S$ in $sp^3d$ hybridization with $1$ lone pair,resulting in a see-saw geometry. The table incorrectly states $dsp^3$ and square planar geometry.$IV$: $SnCl_2$ has $Sn$ in $sp^2$ hybridization with $1$ lone pair,resulting in an angular (bent) geometry. The table incorrectly states $sp$ and linear geometry.Therefore,only set $I$ is correct.

Which of the following sets is correct based on the table provided below?
Molecule Hybridization Geometry Number of lone pairs of electrons on central atom
$I$ $SiH_4$ $sp^3$ tetrahedral $0$
$II$ $BeCl_2$ $sp^2$ linear $1$
$III$ $SF_4$ $dsp^3$ square planar $1$
$IV$ $SnCl_2$ $sp$ linear $0$
