MCQ
Which of the following is not isostructural with $SiCl_4$ ?
  • A
    $NH_{4}^+$
  • $SCl_4$
  • C
    $SO_4^{2-}$
  • D
    $PO_4^{3-}$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$SCl_4$
b
$S Cl_{4}$ is not isostructural with $S i C l_{4}$ because shows square planar structure due to involvement of repulsion between lone pair and bond pair of electrons.

$S O_{4}^{2-}$ shows tetrahedral structure due to $s p^{3}$ hybridisation.

$P O_{4}^{3-}$ shows tetrahedral structure due to $s p^{3}$ hybridisation.

$N H_{4}^{+}$ shows tetrahedral structure due to $s p^{3}$ hybridisation.
