Question

3. Among the triatomic molecules/ions
BeCl2, N3,N,O,NO;,0, SCI, ICI,,1; and XeF,,
the total number of linear molecule(s)/ions(s)
where the hybridization of the central atom does
not have contribution from the d-orbital(s) is
[Atomic number : S = 16, CI = 17, I = 35 and
(2015)
Xe = 54]​

Answer 1

ANSWER-

BeCl2, N−3, N2O, NO+2, O3, SCl2, ICl−2, I−3, XeF2

BeCl2→sp→linear

N−3→sp→linear

N2O→sp→linear

N+O2→sp→linear

O3→sp→bent

SCl2→sp3→bent

I−3→sp2d→linear

ICl−2→sp3d→linear

XeF2→sp3d→linear

So among the following only four (4) has linear shape and no d-orbital is involved in hybridization. HOPE IT WILL HELP YOU. PLEASE MARK AS BRAINLIST
