Consider, PF5,BrF5,PCl3,SF6,ICl4-,ClF3 and IF5

Amongst the above molecule(s) ion(s), the number of molecule(s)/ion(s) having sp3d2 hybridisation is

Answer:
4.00
Solution:

Number of hybrid orbitals = Number of bond pair + number of lone pair on central atom.

To have sp3d2 hybridisation there should be total of 6 (bond pairs + lone pairs). The structure in such case will be octahedral or its derivative structures.
