Question

Linear molecule among the following is

1. H2S 2. CI2O 3. XeF2

4.CIO2​

Answer 1

Answer:

XeF2 is linear among the given molecules.

Explanation:

There are three lone pairs in Fluorine that tend to be maximum distance apart due to intense repulsions and there are two Xe-F bonds. They bond angie is 180⁰ and so XeF2 has a linear geometry.
