Q17 / 160 · TS EAMCET 2017 · Chemistry

The species having pyramidal shape according to VSEPR theory is

  • A
    $\mathrm{SO}_3$
  • B
    $\mathrm{BrF}_3$
  • C
    $\mathrm{SiO}_3^{2-}$
  • Correct answer
    D
    $\mathrm{OsF}_2$

Solution

$\mathrm{OsF}$ central atom sulphur contain 3 b.p and 1 l. $p$ hence, $\mathrm{OsF}_2$ is pyramidal. But it is given as $\mathrm{OsF}_2$ $\therefore$ It is wrong question.

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