Which of following statement is/are correct for ClOF3 ?
Options:(select one or more)
Answer:
C, D
Solution:
Cl has 3 F, 1 O and 1 lone pair: sp3d, trigonal bipyramidal, see-saw shape.
The d orbital used for hybridisation is dz2, not dxy, so (A) is wrong.
The Cl=O π bond uses a d orbital (pπ-dπ), so (B) is wrong.
See-saw is non-planar.
