The number of inter halogens from the following having square pyramidal structure is
Correct answer
3
Step-by-step solution
Square pyramidal structures are and .
These molecules are made up of 6 equally spaced hybrid orbitals arranged at angles. The shape of the orbitals is octahedral. One orbital contains a lone pair of electrons, so the remaining five atoms connected to the central atom gives the molecule a square pyramidal shape. Among the given options the structure with five bond pairs and one lone pair is these three structures only.
