  • question_answer
    Trigonal bipyramidal geometry is shown by:

    A) \[Xe{{O}_{3}}\]                       

    B) \[Xe{{O}_{3}}{{F}_{2}}\]

    C) \[FXeOS{{O}_{2}}F\]               

    D) \[{{\left[ Xe{{F}_{8}} \right]}^{2-}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    [b] The hybridization of \[Xe{{O}_{3}}{{F}_{2}}\] is \[s{{p}^{3}}d\] and its structure is trigonal bipyramidal in which oxygen atoms are situated on the plane and the fluoride atoms are on the top and bottom.
