Question

What is the shape of SF4 molecule?

Answer 1

Answer:

SF4 molecule shape is seesaw. It possess sp3d hybridisation. There r 4 bonded pairs of electrons and one lone pair of electeon on S. Lone pair occupies equatorial position in trigonal bipyramidal structure. Remaining four positions will be occupied by F. This shape is called seesaw structure.

Answer 2

Answer:

trigonal bipyramidal

trigonal bipyramidalSF4(Sulphur tetrafluoride) has 10 electrons around the central atom. This means that there are 5 electron pair arranged in trigonal bipyramidal shape with angle of 102 degree in the equitorial bonds and of 173 in axial bonds. Hence,the shape of it is 'TRIGONAL BIPYRAMIDAL'. Hopes it will helps you my friend.
