Which of the following statements is/are true?

(i)PH5 andBiCl5do not exist

(ii)p π-d πbond is present inSO2

(iii)I3+has bent geometry

(iv)SeF4 and CH4have same shape

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

(i) PH 5 does not exist because the electronegativity of H & P are almost same they should have sp 3 d hybridised but the H cannot distort the d orbital of P hence it is not exist while BiCl 5 Bi +3 is more stable than Bi +3 due to inert inert pair effect and in BiCl 5 steric crowding also present so it does not exist.

(ii) S=1 s 2 2 s 2 2 p 6 3 s 2 3 p 4 3 d 0

In exicited state
p & d orbital of sulphur & p orbital of oxygen involved in π bond so SO 2 has pπ−dπ bond

(iii) I 3 +

2bp+2lp= sp 3  hybridisation

(iv)SeF4 & CH4
