If AB4 molecule is a polar molecule, a possible geometry of AB4 is : (A) Square pyramidal (B) Rectan — JEE Mains Chemistry Past Papers Chemistry Question
Question
If AB4 molecule is a polar molecule, a possible geometry of AB4 is : (A) Square pyramidal (B) Rectangular planar (C) Square planar (D) Tetrahedral
Answer: A
💡 Solution & Explanation
. For AB4 compound possible geometry are S. No. Bond pair Lone pair Total Hybridisation Geometry Polarity 4 4 SP3 Tetrahedral non polar 4 5 SP3d Sea-saw Polar 4 6 sp3d2 Square Planar non polar Square pyramidal can be polar due to lone pair moment as the bond pair moments will get cancelled out.
