Hybridisation is a concept of mixing of atomic orbital of almost equal energy, with the help of hybridisation shape of the molecules can be determined. `(bp + lp) =` Number of atom attached to central atom `+ (1)/(2) ["Valance" e^(-) "of central atom - Number of" e^(-)s "taking part in hybridisation" +- "charge"]` What is the hybridisation and shape of `BrF_(5)` ?A. `sp^(3)d`, Triangular bipyramidalB. `sp^(3)d^(2)` OctahedralC. `sp^(3)d^(3)`, Pentagonal bipyramidalD. `sp^(3)d^(2)`, Distorted octahedral |

Answer» Correct Answer - D The shape of `BrF_(5)` is distorted octahedral and the hybridisation is `sp^(3)d^(2)`. |
