Vedclass · Answer

(D) Sulfur $(S)$ has the electronic configuration $[Ne] 3s^2 3p^4$. It has $6$ valence electrons. In $SF_2$,sulfur forms two single bonds with fluorine atoms,leaving two lone pairs on sulfur. In $SF_4$,sulfur forms four single bonds with fluorine atoms,leaving one lone pair on sulfur. In $SF_6$,sulfur forms six single bonds with fluorine atoms,utilizing its $3d$ orbitals to expand its octet. Since all these compounds satisfy the valency and bonding requirements of sulfur,all of them exist.

List-$I$ (Species)	List-$II$ (Number of lone pairs)
$A. \ CH_3COCH_3$	$I. \ 2$
$B. \ CH_3CO^+$	$II. \ 0$
$C. \ CH_3CH_2^+$	$III. \ 1$
	$IV. \ 3$
