Vedclass · Answer

(B) $XeF_2$: $2$ bond pairs and $3$ lone pairs on $Xe$,steric number $= 5$,$sp^3d$ hybridization,geometry is trigonal bipyramidal. $(P-5)$$XeF_4$: $4$ bond pairs and $2$ lone pairs on $Xe$,steric number $= 6$,$sp^3d^2$ hybridization,geometry is square planar. $(Q-3)$$XeO_3$: $3$ bond pairs and $1$ lone pair on $Xe$,steric number $= 4$,$sp^3$ hybridization,geometry is pyramidal. $(R-2)$$XeO_3F_2$: $5$ bond pairs and $0$ lone pairs on $Xe$,steric number $= 5$,$sp^3d$ hybridization,geometry is trigonal bipyramidal. $(S-4)$Therefore,the correct matching is $P-5, Q-3, R-2, S-4$.

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
