Vedclass · Answer

(B) $SF_4$ has a see-saw structure (steric number $5$, $4$ bond pairs, $1$ lone pair).$(A)$ $BrF_4^{\ominus}$: Steric number = $\frac{1}{2}(7+4+1) = 6$ (Square planar).$(B)$ $CH_4$: Steric number = $4$ (Tetrahedral).$(C)$ $IF_4^{\oplus}$: Steric number = $\frac{1}{2}(7+4-1) = 5$ ($4$ bond pairs, $1$ lone pair, see-saw).$(D)$ $XeF_4$: Steric number = $\frac{1}{2}(8+4) = 6$ (Square planar).$(E)$ $XeO_2F_2$: Steric number = $\frac{1}{2}(8+2+2) = 5$ ($4$ bond pairs, $1$ lone pair, see-saw).Both $IF_4^{\oplus}$ and $XeO_2F_2$ have the same geometry and shape as $SF_4$.

Consider the following species: $(A)$ $BrF_4^{\ominus}$, $(B)$ $CH_4$, $(C)$ $IF_4^{\oplus}$, $(D)$ $XeF_4$, $(E)$ $XeO_2F_2$. Which of these species are isostructural with $SF_4$?
