NEET2019ChemistryChemical Bonding and Molecular StructureActual
When Ag ⁺ reacts with excess of sodium thiosulphate then the obtained species have charge and geometry respectively
Options
- A-3 , linear
- B-2, tetrahedral
- C-1, square planar
- D-3 , square planar.
Correct answer
A. -3 , linear
Step-by-step solution
Ag ⁺+2 ~S ₂ O ₃²⁻ [ Ag ( S ₂ O ₃ )₂ ]³⁻ Coordination number of Ag ⁺ is 2 so it has s p -hybridization and has linear shape.
