Question

Chlorine trifluoride molecule undergoes sp³d hybridization, excited state electronic configuration of chlorine atom can be written as:

पर्याय

• 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁴ 3d¹

• 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p³ 3d²

• 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁵

• 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s¹ 3p⁵ 3d¹

Answer 1

1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁴ 3d¹

Explanation:

CIF₃ = sp³d hybridization

Cl = 3s² 3p⁵

Excited State of Cl: 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁴ 3d¹
