In each question a blank or blanks are left. Fill in the blank(s) with relevant answer(s).
Give the hybridization and no. of lone pairs over the central atom (Molecule - Hybridisation - No. of lone pairs)<br>$$\text{XeO}_2\text{F}_2$$ __________ __________<br>$$\text{ICl}_2^-$$ __________ __________<br>$$\text{CO}_2$$ __________ __________
Correct Answer: 0
PLACEHOLDER ANSWER - the answer is a set of entries, not a number. In $$\text{XeO}_2\text{F}_2$$, Xe has 4 bonded atoms and 1 lone pair, so it is $$sp^3d$$ with 1 lone pair. In $$\text{ICl}_2^-$$, I has 2 bonded atoms and 3 lone pairs, so it is $$sp^3d$$ with 3 lone pairs. In $$\text{CO}_2$$, C forms two double bonds with no lone pair, so it is $$sp$$ with 0 lone pairs.
