491.

The AsF5 molecule is trigonal bipyramidal. The hybrid orbitals used by the As atoms for bonding are

  • dx2-y2, dz2, s, px, py

  • dxy, s, px, py, pz

  • dx2-y2, s, px, py

  • s, px, py, pz, dz2


492.

Hydride of boron occurs as B2H6 but B2Cl6 does not exist. This is because

  • pπ - dπ back bonding is possible in B2H6 but not in B2Cl6

  • boron and hydrogen have almost equal values of electronegativity

  • boron and chlorine have almost equal atomic sizes

  • small hydrogen atoms can easily fit in between boron atoms but large chlorine atoms do not.


493.

Assertion : trans-Pent-2-ene is polar but trans- but-2-ene is non-polar.

Reason : The polarity of cis-isomer is more than trans-isomer, which are either non-polar or less polar.

  • If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

  • If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

  • If assertion is true but reason is false.

  • If both assertion and reason are false


494.
