Among the triatomic molecules/ions, BeCl_(2), N_(3)^(-), N_(2)O, NO_(2

1.	Among the triatomic molecules/ions, BeCl_(2), N_(3)^(-), N_(2)O, NO_(2)^(+), O_(3), SCl_(2), ICl_(2)^(-), I_(3)^(-) and XeF_(2), the total number of linear molecule (s)/ions(s) where the hybridization of the central atom does not have contribution from the d-orbital (s) is
Answer» SOLUTION :`{:(,"Molecule/ion","Hybridization","Shape"),((i),BeCl_(2),""sp,"Linear"),((II),N_(3)^(-),""sp,"Linear"),((iii),N_(2)O,""sp,"Linear"),((iv),NO_(2)^(+),""sp,"Linear"),((V),O_(3),""sp^(2),"Bent"),((vi),SCl_(2),""sp^(3),"Bent"),((vii),ICl_(2)^(-),""sp^(3)d,"Linear"),((viii),I_(3)^(-),""sp^(3)d,"Linear"),((IX),XeF_(2),""sp^(3)d,"Linear"):}` Thus, there are only four molecules/ions (i-iv) where the hybridization of the central ATOM does not have contribution from d-orbitals.
