Question

Explain the shape of SF6 according to VSEPR theory

Answer 1

S has electron configuration as $3 s^{2} 3p^{4}$
{image below 1st}

When 6 F's come the electron jumps from 3s & 3p to 3d
{image below 2nd}

The flourine gets placed there forming $s p^{3} d^{2}$ hybridization...

Thus the shape is octahedral...

Answer 2

The Sf6 the shape of sf6 is octahedral it was calculated by number of lone pair and Bond pair
