The species which is Pyramind in shape ? (a)SO3 (b) BrF3 (c) SiO3 ^2- (d) OSF2

OpenStudy (ghazi):

BrF3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Why ?

OpenStudy (ghazi):

because Br has got one lone pair which will repel all the bond pair and make a pyramidal structure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

But the answer should be (d) OSF2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

To..Be Pyramid which Hydradisation..is needed .. is it Sp^3 d

OpenStudy (ghazi):

hybridisation is not compulsorily required for pyramidal structure....can you draw the structure of OSF2

OpenStudy (ghazi):

i guess you should write it as SOF2 thionyl fluoride

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its Hydridisation is sp^3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Trioganal Pymarid

OpenStudy (ghazi):

yes it's thionyl fluoride ....and it will have pyramidal structure ....SOF2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thxxx..

OpenStudy (ghazi):

|dw:1346325021402:dw| where X is halogen

OpenStudy (ghazi):

at X you can attach two fluorine and you'll have pyramidal structure
