Question

The species having pyramidal shape is :
(a) SO₃ (b) BrF₃
(c) SiO₃²⁻ (d) OsF₂

Answer 1

Answer:

Correct answer is (d)

Hope it helped.

Answer 2

The species having pyramidal shape is OsF₂.

Explanation:

• OsF₂ is $sp^3$ hybridization. Its shape is trigonal pyramid.
• SO₃ is $sp^2$ hybridization. It is trigonal planar.
• BrF₃ is $sp^3$d hybridization. It is trigonal bipyramidal.
• SiO₃²⁻ is $sp^2$ hybridization. It is trigonal.

Pyramidal shape

• It is a shape of molecule which results in the molecule, three bonds and only one lone pair on the center of the atom. At the center of the atom, sp3 hybridization of tetrahedral geometry in the molecule.
• Pyramid contains base of any polygon more than three triangular faces which meets the point called apex. The triangular faces are also known as lateral faces which differentiate them from base.
