MCQ
The central atom in a molecule is in $s{p^2}$ hybrid state. The shape of molecule will be
  • A
    Pyramidal
  • B
    Tetrahedral
  • C
    Octahedral
  • Trigonal planar

Answer

Correct option: D.
Trigonal planar
d
The pairs are arranged along the central atom's equator, with $120^{\circ}$ angles between them. Molecules with an Trigonal planar electron pair geometries have $sp _2 d$ hybridization at the central atom.
