Match List I with List II

LIST I
(Hybridization)
LIST II
(Orientation in Shape)
A. sp 3^33 I. Trigonal bipyramidal
B. dsp 2^22 II. Octahedral
C. sp 3^33 d III. Tetrahedral
D. sp 3^33 d 2^22 IV. Square planar

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

  1. A
    A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II
  2. B
    A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II
  3. C
    A-IV, B-III, C-I, D-II
  4. D
    A-II, B-I, C-IV, D-III

Correct answer: B

  1. We match each hybridization with its corresponding geometry/orientation.

  2. Recall the standard hybridization–shape relations in coordination compounds:

  • sp3→sp^3 \rightarrowsp3→ tetrahedral
  • dsp2→dsp^2 \rightarrowdsp2→ square planar
  • sp3d→sp^3d \rightarrowsp3d→ trigonal bipyramidal
  • sp3d2→sp^3d^2 \rightarrowsp3d2→ octahedral
  1. Now match List I with List II:
  • A. sp3sp^3sp3 →\rightarrow→ III. Tetrahedral
  • B. dsp2dsp^2dsp2 →\rightarrow→ IV. Square planar
  • C. sp3dsp^3dsp3d →\rightarrow→ I. Trigonal bipyramidal
  • D. sp3d2sp^3d^2sp3d2 →\rightarrow→ II. Octahedral
  1. Therefore the correct matching is:

A−III,  B−IV,  C−I,  D−IIA-III,\; B-IV,\; C-I,\; D-IIA−III,B−IV,C−I,D−II

  1. Compare with the given options:
  • Option A: incorrect
  • Option B: correct
  • Option C: incorrect
  • Option D: incorrect

Hence, the correct answer is Option B.
