NEET Chemistry Molecular Orbital Theory Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
Column-I Column-II (a) PCl5 geometry (i) sp3d hybridization (b) NaCl formation (ii) resonance hybrid (c) CO3^2- structure (iii) ionic bond (d) H2O bond angle (iv) distorted tetrahedral
Choose the correct matching:
a-i, b-iii, c-ii, d-iv
a-ii, b-iv, c-i, d-iii
a-iii, b-i, c-iv, d-ii
a-iv, b-ii, c-iii, d-i
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
PCl5 exhibits a trigonal bipyramidal geometry due to sp3d hybridization. NaCl is formed through ionic bonding, while CO3^2- is best described as a resonance hybrid of its structures. H2O has a distorted tetrahedral shape with a bond angle less than that of NH3.
