1.	Using the VSEPR theory , identify the type of hydridisation and draw the structure of OF_(2) . What are oxidation states of O and F ?
Answer» Solution :Electron dot structures of `OF_(2)` is Thus , the central ATOM (O-atom) has 4 pairs of electrons (2bond paris ). HENCE oxygen in `OF_(2) is SP^(2)`hybridised and the molecular is V-shaped . Oxidation state of F = - 1 Oxidation state of O = + 2 .
