Answer» (i) `NH_(4)^(+) : H=1//2[5+4-1+0]=4=(sp^(3)-"non-planar")` (ii) `CH_(4)^(+) : H=1//2[4+3-1+0]=6//2=3(sp^(2)-"planar")` (iii) `SF_(4) : H=1//3[6+4-0+0]=10//2=5(sp^(3)d-"non-planar")` (iv) `OF_(2) : H=1//2[6+2-0+0]=8//2=4(sp^(3)-"non-planar")` (v) `H_(2)O: H=1//2[6+2-0+0]=8//2=4(sp^(3)-"non-planar")` |
