Vedclass · Answer

(C) To identify isostructural pairs,we determine the hybridization and geometry of each species:$1$. $NF_3$: $N$ is $sp^3$ hybridized with one lone pair,resulting in a pyramidal geometry.$2$. $H_3O^+$: $O$ is $sp^3$ hybridized with one lone pair,resulting in a pyramidal geometry.$3$. $NO_3^-$: $N$ is $sp^2$ hybridized with no lone pairs,resulting in a trigonal planar geometry.$4$. $BF_3$: $B$ is $sp^2$ hybridized with no lone pairs,resulting in a trigonal planar geometry.$5$. $HN_3$: This is hydrazoic acid,which has a linear/bent structure depending on resonance,but it is not isostructural with the others.Thus,the isostructural pairs are $[NF_3, H_3O^+]$ (both pyramidal) and $[NO_3^-, BF_3]$ (both trigonal planar).Therefore,option $C$ is correct.

List-$I$	List-$II$
$(P)$ $XeF_2$	$(5)$ Trigonal bipyramidal and three lone pairs of electrons
$(Q)$ $XeF_4$	$(3)$ Square planar and two lone pairs of electrons
$(R)$ $XeO_3$	$(2)$ Pyramidal and one lone pair of electrons
$(S)$ $XeO_3F_2$	$(4)$ Trigonal bipyramidal and no lone pairs of electrons

$S_8$	$A$
$P_4$	$B$
$S_6$	$C$
$O_3$	$D$

Among the following species,identify the isostructural pairs: $NF_3, NO_3^-, BF_3, H_3O^+, HN_3$.
