Type: Match the Following-conceptual-Medium-Class 11
Match the xenon compounds in column-I with its structure in column-II and assign the CORRECT code:
| Column-I | Column-II |
|---|---|
| (i) XeF₄ | (a) Pyramidal |
| (ii) XeF₆ | (b) Square planar |
| (iii) XeOF₄ | (c) Distorted octahedral |
| (iv) XeO₃ | (d) Square pyramidal |
A
i – b, ii – c, iii – d, iv – a
B
i – b, ii – d, iii – a, iv – c
C
i – c, ii – d, iii – a, iv – b
D
i – a, ii – b, iii – c, iv – d
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
The structures of xenon compounds are determined by VSEPR theory: XeF₄ is square planar, XeO₄ is pyramidal, etc.
