Which of the following has the regular tetrahedral structure?
Options
- AB F 4 -
- BS F 4
- C[ N i C N 4 ] 2 -
- DX e F 4
Correct answer
A. B F 4 -
Step-by-step solution
Tetrahedral structure is associated with s p 3 hybridized central atom with 4 bond pairs of electrons and without any lone pair of electrons. Here B F 4 - is Tetrahedral in structure as it has 4 bond pairs of electrons The shapes of S F 4 , [ N i C N 4 ] 2 - and X e F 4 are sea-saw, square planar and square planar respectively.
