Chemical Bonding And Molecular Structure Question 310
Question: Among the following compounds the one that is polar and has the central atom with $ ~sp^{2} $ hybridization is
Options:
A) $ H_2CO_3 $
B) $ SiF_4 $
C) $ BF_3 $
D) $ HClO_2 $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: A
Solution:
- $ H_2CO_3 $ and $ BF_3 $ both have trigonal planar geometry $ BF_3 $ is symmetrical $ \therefore ,\mu =0 $ hence non polar, $ H_2CO_3 $ is not symmetrical hence polar in nature.
