Question

hybridisation of PCl3 should be sp^3 but it is sp^3d and in case of SF6 ot should be sp^3d but it is sp^3d^2 why is it so?? Please help

Answer 1

hybridisation of PCl3 will be sp3 but shape will be pyramidal bcz P will have 1 LP.
and for SF6 it will be sp3d2 as all the e- of S will get paired by F and no unpaired e- pair left and geometry will be octahedral..
hope it helped u..
if helped then mark as brainliest ans..
