MCQ
Which of the following molecular geometry is not produced by $sp^3$ hybridisation
  • Triangular planar
  • B
    See-Saw
  • C
    $T-$ shape
  • D
    Linear

Answer

Correct option: A.
Triangular planar
a
From $sp ^3 d$-hybridization trigonal planar geometry is not possible, because in trigonal planar geometry lone pair electrons will be placed at the axial position, which violates $VSEPR$ theory or Bent's rule and leads to greater repulsion btween lon pairs and bond pairs.
