Q6 / 180 · KCET 2020 · Chemistry

Incorrectly matched pair is

A
$\mathrm{XeO}_{3}$ pyramidal
Correct answer
B
$\mathrm{XeF}_{4}$ tetrahedral
C
$\mathrm{XeF}_{6}$ disorted octahedral
D
$\mathrm{XeOF}_{4}$ square pyramidal

Solution

$\mathrm{XeF}_{4}$ tetrahedral is the incorrectly matched pair as $\mathrm{XeF}_{4}$ is actually having square plannar structure with $s p^{3} d^{2}$ hybridisation.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
