Among the following compounds, which compound is polar as well as exhibit s p^2 -hybridisation by the central atom
Options
- AH ₂ CO ₃
- BSiF ₄
- CBF ₃
- DHClO ₃
Correct answer
A. H ₂ CO ₃
Step-by-step solution
(i) SiF ₄ and HClO ₃ has s p^3 - hybridisation. (ii) BF ₃ and H ₂ CO ₃ has s p^2 -hybridisation but BF ₃ is non-polar. Correct answer is H ₂ CO ₃ .
