Question

Identify the molecule $(X)$ with maximum number of lone pairs of electrons (obtained using Lewis’s dot structure) among ${HNO}_{3},H_{2}{SO}_{4},{NF}_{3}$ and $O_{3}$. Choose the correct bond angle made by the central atom of the molecule (X).


Options

A. $120^{\circ}$
B.$107^{\circ}$
C.$102^{\circ}$
D.$116^{\circ}$

Solution

${NF}_{3}$ hybridization: sp3

Number of lone pair in ${NF}_{3} = 10$

Bond angle in ${NF}_{3} \approx 102^{\circ}$

List-I

Functional group (detection)

(A) Unsaturation (Baeyer's test)

(B) Alcoholic group (Ceric ammonium nitrate test)

(C) Aldehyde group (Tollen's reagent)

(D) Phenolic group ( ${FeCl}_{3}$ test)

List-II

Change observed during detection

(I) Red colour Appears

(II) Silver mirror appears

(III) Violet colour appears

(IV) Discharge of pink colour
