What is thestrcuture of interhalogencompound ofthe type XX_(3) ? |
|
Answer» Solution :(1) Interhalogen compound of thetype `XX_(3)`possesses trigonalbipyramidal or T-shaped strucure. (2) Thecentral halgen atomX (X = cl, Br, I) undergoes `sp^(3)` d hydridisation FORMING fivehyridorbitals . (3) Two hydrid orbitalscontains lone pairsof electrons. Ground state of X  CONSIDER `CIF_(3)` MOLCULES :  ThebondangleF-Cl - F is `87^(@)29` close to `90^(@)`due to repulsionbetweenlonepairs - lonepairs and lonepairsbondspairs. |
