Vedclass · Answer

(A) To determine the shape of the given species,we use the $VSEPR$ theory:$1$. $H_3O^+$: Oxygen has $6$ valence electrons. It forms $3$ bonds with $H$ and has $1$ lone pair. Total electron pairs = $4$ ($sp^3$ hybridization). Due to $1$ lone pair,the shape is Pyramidal $(III)$.$2$. Acetylide anion $(C_2^{2-})$: The structure is $[C \equiv C]^{2-}$. The carbon atoms are $sp$ hybridized,resulting in a Linear $(II)$ shape.$3$. $NH_4^+$: Nitrogen has $5$ valence electrons. It forms $4$ bonds with $H$ and has $0$ lone pairs. Total electron pairs = $4$ ($sp^3$ hybridization). The shape is Tetrahedral $(I)$.$4$. $ClO_2^-$: Chlorine has $7$ valence electrons. It forms $2$ bonds with $O$ and has $2$ lone pairs. Total electron pairs = $4$ ($sp^3$ hybridization). Due to $2$ lone pairs,the shape is Bent $(IV)$.Matching the results: $A-III, B-II, C-I, D-IV$.
