Given reaction has one mole ionic product only, in which one cation and one anion are present:

NF₃(l) + 2F₂(g) + SbF₃(l) → product

Select the CORRECT statement(s) about the product:

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:

The reaction is a Lewis acid-base reaction forming an ionic product.

NF₃(l) + 2F₂(g) + SbF₃(l) → [NF₄]⁺[SbF₆]⁻

 

Cation: [NF₄]⁺

- N is the central atom.

- Oxidation number of N: .

- Hybridization of N: sp³. Geometry: Tetrahedral.

 

Anion: [SbF₆]⁻

- Sb is the central atom.

- Oxidation number of Sb: .

- Hybridization of Sb: sp³d². Geometry: Octahedral.

 

Therefore, statements A, B, and C are correct.

 

Final Answer: The final answer is D
