Explanation:

Answer 2

Hybridization of $SF_{2} Cl_{2}$ is trigonal bipyramidal

Explanation:

• Hybridisation of $SF_{2} Cl_{2}$ is $sp3d$ that is trigonal bipyramidal.
• This compound is having a shape of the see saw shape.
• Here the hybridisation of sulphur is $sp3d$
• The sulphur has four coordination numbers due to the presence of four bonds. They are two with fluorine and two with chlorine.
• They are said to in see saw shape  as it looks exactly like a see saw.
• This shape is caused due to the presence of lone pair of electrons on the central metal atom.
• Here Sulphur is the central atom with two fluorine atoms on the equatorial plane and two on the axial plane.
