IF3 has 5 electron pairs to "place" in orbitals. sp3d hybridisation gives the 5 with trigonal pyramidal symmetry.

I might not know the answer to my question but I do not think it is SP^3.


What is the molecular geometry for ClF3?

The shape of ClF3 molecule is T shaped The hybridisation is Sp3d. expected shape is Trigonal biPyramidal but dueto the presence of TWO lone pairs of electrons the shape is T shaped But actually this is slightly bent structure.

What are hybridisation schemes?

The mixing of atomic orbitals is called hybridisation.


What is the hybridization of pcl3f2?

The hybridization of PCl3F2 is sp3d. This hybridization occurs when there are five electron domains around the central atom (phosphorus), consisting of three bonding pairs and two lone pairs.


How many electrons surround the central you atom in IF3?

In IF3, iodine (I) has 7 valence electrons and each fluorine (F) has 7 valence electrons. Thus, the central iodine atom in IF3 is surrounded by 21 electrons from the three fluorine atoms (7 electrons each).


What is the hybridization of the F atom in AsF5?

sp3d. The ion is see-saw shaped (VSEPR thepry- AX4E geometry)


What is the hybrid orbital hybridization of the central atom Te in TeF4?

In the gas phase the shape is similar to SF4 (see-saw) with 5 electron pairs around the Te. The hybridisation is roughly sp3d however the bond lengths are not all the same and the angles are not what you would expect (sp3d orbitals are aligned like a trigonal bipyramid) In the solid which is polymeric, with six electron pairs around the Te atoms, the hybridisation is roughly sp3d2, again the angles are not the ideal 90 0 .
