For OF2{OF}_{2} molecule consider the following:
(A) Number of lone pairs on oxygen is 22.
(B) FOFFOF angle is less than 104.5°104 . 5 °.
(C) Oxidation state of OO is −2- 2.
(D) Molecule is bent 'VV' shaped.
(E) Molecular geometry is linear.

Correct options are:

For OF _ 2 molecule consider the following: (A) Number of lone pairs on oxygen is 2 . (B) FOF angle is less than 104 .

Options

  1. AC, D, E only
  2. BB, E, A only
  3. CA, C, D only
  4. DA, B, D only

Correct answer

D. A, B, D only

Step-by-step solution

For OF _ 2 molecule consider the following: (A) Number of lone pairs on oxygen is 2 . (B) FOF angle is less than 104 .

  • Two lone pair one oxygen
  • Molecule is 'vv' shaped(Due to lone pair)
  • Bond angle is less than 104.5°(102°)104 . 5 ° \left(102 °\right)(Due to lone pair)
  • O⋅S⋅O \cdot S \cdot of 'OO' is +2+ 2(Fluorine is more electronegative than oxygen)
