Question

How is sp3d4 hybridization possible? Explain using the Q. Mechanical model.

Answer 1

hello mate

here is your answer

sp3d4 hybridization {steric no. 8}

a]Sp3d4 hybridization is possible

b]It is actually a very rare type of hybridization.

c]IN this case the central atom is bonded to other 8 atoms and the oxidation number goes above +7.

example=O8

d]THEY GIVE RISE TO Archimedes antiprismatic structures AND THEY ARE very COMPLEX STRUCTURE .

hope it helps

BE BRAINLY////

Answer 2

$\text{\underline{Hybridization:}}$


⚫Hybridisation indicates the no. of bonds that central metal atom forms.


⚫sp3d4 would mean that central atom is bonded to 8 ligands which is not possible.


⚫Because the highest oxidation state that exists in Mn +7.


⚫And in case of Os +8, we don not have structures with 8/9 ligands attached.
