NEETChemistryChemical Bonding and Molecular Structure
Match the following : The correct match is A B C D
Options
- AIII II IV I
- BIII II I IV
- Carray llll II & III & IV & I array
- Darray llll | & III & I & IV array
Correct answer
C. array llll II & III & IV & I array
Step-by-step solution
BF ₃ has trigonal planar geometry. B has 3 bond-pairs and 0 lone pair of electrons. ClF ₃ has T -shape geometry. Cl has 3 bond pairs and 2 lone-pairs of electrons. Electronic geometry will be trigonal bipyramidal. NH ₃ has trigonal pyramidal geometry. N has 3 bond pairs and 1 lone-pair of electrons. NH ₄⁺ has tetrahedral geometry. N has 4 bond pairs. Hence, correct match is A II , B III , C IV , D I
