If $'X'$ is $H,$ then the species should be polar and planar.

Vedclass · Answer

(D) For $\overset{\bullet }{C}X_{3}$ radicals,the geometry depends on the electronegativity of the substituent $X$.According to Bent's rule,more electronegative substituents prefer orbitals with less $s-$character.If electronegativity of $X If electronegativity of $X > 2.5$ (e.g.,$F$,$EN \approx 4.0$),the radical is pyramidal ($sp^3$ hybridized,$25\% \ s-$character) and polar.Option $D$ states that if $X=H$,the species is polar and planar,which is incorrect as $\overset{\bullet }{C}H_{3}$ is non-polar.

Molecule	Hybridization	Geometry
$I$. $BrF_5$	$sp^3d^2$	Square pyramidal
$II$. $XeF_6$	$sp^3d^3$	Distorted octahedral
$III$. $SF_4$	$dsp^2$	Square planar
$IV$. $PbCl_2$	$sp$	Linear
