Question

Match List I (species) with List II (hybridisation) and select the correct code given below \[ \begin{array}{c c c} List I & & List II A.\; XeF_4 & & (i)\; dsp^2 B.\; H_2O & & (ii)\; sp^3 C.\; PCl_5 & & (iii)\; sp^3d^2 D.\; [Pt(NH_3)_4]^{2+} & & (iv)\; sp^3d \end{array} \] Codes: {c c c c c} & A & B & C & D

• A. & (iii) & (ii) & (iv) & (i)
• B. & (i) & (iv) & (ii) & (iii)
• C. & (iii) & (iv) & (ii) & (i)
• D. & (i) & (ii) & (iv) & (iii)

Hint:

Square planar \(\Rightarrow\) \(dsp^2\), trigonal bipyramidal \(\Rightarrow\) \(sp^3d\), octahedral \(\Rightarrow\) \(sp^3d^2\).

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A
