MCQ
The group of molecules having identical shape is
  • A
    $PCl_5,\,IF_5,\, XeO_2F_2$
  • B
    $BF_3,\,PCl_3,\,XeO_3$
  • C
    $SF_4,\,XeF_4,\,CCl_4$
  • $ClF_3,\, XeOF_2,\, XeF_3^+$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$ClF_3,\, XeOF_2,\, XeF_3^+$
d
$Cl{I_3} \to $ Hybridisation $ = 3 + \frac{1}{2}[7 - 3] = 5\,(s{p^3}d)$

$XeOF_2 \to $ Hybridisation $ = 3 + \frac{1}{2}[8 - 4] = 5\,(s{p^3}d)$

$XeF_3^+ \to $ Hybridisation $ = 3 + \frac{1}{2}[8 - 3 - 1] = 5\,(s{p^3}d)$

All molecules have $sp^3d$ hybridization and $2$ lone pairs. Hence all have identical ( $T-$ shape).
