Which of the following molecules is formed without following the octet rule?A. `SF_6`B. `IF_7`C. `BeCl_2`D. All of these

Answer» Correct Answer - D
In `SF_6` and `IF_7`, the central atoms S and I, respectively, have expanded valence shell while in `BeCl_2`, the central Be atom has an incomplete octet. Thus, all these molecules violate the octet rule.
