In which one of the following species the central atom has the type of hybridisation which is not the same as that present in the other three?
A.
$$S{F_4}$$
B.
$$l_3^ - $$
C.
$$SbCl_5^{2 - }$$
D.
$$PC{l_5}$$
Answer :
$$SbCl_5^{2 - }$$
Solution : Key Idea Molecules having same hybridisation have same number of hybrid orbitals,
$$H = \frac{1}{2}\left[ {V + X - C + A} \right]$$
where,
$$V = $$ number of valence electrons of central atom
$$X = $$ number of monovalent atoms
$$C = $$ charge on cation
$$A = $$ charge on anion
$$\eqalign{
& SbCl_5^{2 - } = s{p^3}{d^2},PC{l_5} = s{p^3}d \cr
& S{F_4} = s{p^3}d,l_3^ - = s{p^3}d \cr} $$
