Which are the species in which sulphur undergoes sp3 hybridisation ? I. SF4 II. SCl2 III. SO42– IV. H2S(a) I & III (b) I, II & IV (c) II, III & IV (d) III & IV

Answer»

Correct option (c) II, III & IV 

Explanation:

I. SF4 = 4 bp + 1 lp

⇒ sp3d hybridisaton

II. SCl2 = 2 bp + 2bp

⇒ sp3 hybridisation

III. SO42– = 4 bp

⇒ sp3 hybridisation

IV. H2S = 2 bp + 2lp

⇒ sp3 hybridisation

Thus, S atom in SCl2, SO42–, H2S undergoes sp3 hybridisation.

Option (c) is correct
