The number of molecules from the following which contain only two lone pair of electrons is ________
$\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}, \mathrm{N}_{2}, \mathrm{CO}, \mathrm{XeF}_{4}, \mathrm{NH}_{3}, \mathrm{NO}, \mathrm{CO}_{2}, \mathrm{~F}_{2}$
Explanation:

The number of molecules having only 2 lone pair of electrons $=3$
Which are $\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O} , \mathrm{N}_2$ and $\mathrm{CO}$
Note:-
$\mathrm{XeF}_4$ have 2 lps on central atom, but we are asked about lone pair in molecule
The number of bent-shaped molecule/s from the following is __________
N$_3^-$, NO$_2^-$, I$_3^-$, O$_3$, SO$_2$
Explanation:
A bent-shaped molecule has a molecular geometry with a central atom bonded to two other atoms and one or two pairs of non-bonding electrons. The VSEPR (Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion) theory helps us predict the shapes of molecules.
Let's consider the given molecules:
N$_3^-$: The azide ion has a linear shape, not bent. The nitrogen in the middle is connected to two other nitrogens and there are no lone pairs on the central atom.
NO$_2^-$: The nitrite ion has a bent shape. The central nitrogen atom is connected to two oxygen atoms and has one lone pair of electrons, giving it a bent geometry.
I$_3^-$: The triiodide ion has a linear shape, not bent. The central iodine atom is connected to two other iodine atoms and there are no lone pairs on the central atom.
O$_3$: Ozone has a bent shape. The central oxygen atom is connected to two other oxygen atoms and has one lone pair of electrons, giving it a bent geometry.
SO$_2$: Sulfur dioxide has a bent shape. The central sulfur atom is connected to two oxygen atoms and has one lone pair of electrons, giving it a bent geometry.
Therefore, there are 3 bent-shaped molecules: NO$_2^-$, O$_3$, and SO$_2$.
The sum of lone pairs present on the central atom of the interhalogen IF$_5$ and IF$_7$ is _________
Explanation:
Interhalogen compounds are the substances that consist of two different halogens. The most common type of interhalogen compounds are binary, containing only two different elements.
In IF$_5$, iodine (I) is the central atom. Iodine has 7 valence electrons, 5 of which are used for bonding with the 5 fluorine (F) atoms. This leaves 2 electrons, or 1 lone pair on the iodine atom.
In IF$_7$, iodine (I) is the central atom again. Iodine has 7 valence electrons, all of which are used for bonding with the 7 fluorine (F) atoms. So, there are no lone pairs on the iodine atom.
Therefore, the sum of lone pairs present on the central atom of the interhalogens IF$_5$ and IF$_7$ is 1.
The number of species from the following carrying a single lone pair on central atom Xenon is ___________.
$\mathrm{XeF}_{5}^{+}, \mathrm{XeO}_{3}, \mathrm{XeO}_{2} \mathrm{~F}_{2}, \mathrm{XeF}_{5}^{-}, \mathrm{XeO}_{3} \mathrm{~F}_{2}, \mathrm{XeOF}_{4}, \mathrm{XeF}_{4}$

The number of following factors which affect the percent covalent character of the ionic bond is _________
(A) Polarising power of cation
(B) Extent of distortion of anion
(C) Polarisability of the anion
(D) Polarising power of anion
Explanation:
The covalent character of an ionic bond is largely determined by the polarization of the ions involved in the bond. Polarization refers to the distortion of the electron cloud of an anion by a cation. This distortion leads to a shift in electron density towards the cation, thereby increasing the covalent character of the bond.
Here's a breakdown of the options:
(A) Polarising power of cation: The greater the polarising power of a cation, the greater the distortion of the anion, and therefore, the greater the covalent character of the bond. Thus, this statement is correct.
(B) Extent of distortion of anion: The more an anion is distorted, the more the electron density is shifted towards the cation, and the greater the covalent character of the bond. This statement is also correct.
(C) Polarisability of the anion: The greater the polarisability of an anion, the more it can be distorted, and therefore, the greater the covalent character of the bond. Thus, this statement is also correct.
(D) Polarising power of anion: This statement is incorrect. It is not the polarising power of the anion, but the polarisability of the anion and the polarising power of the cation that influence the covalent character of the bond.
Therefore, three of the factors listed (A, B, C) affect the percent covalent character of the ionic bond.
The number of species having a square planar shape from the following is __________.
$\mathrm{XeF}_{4}, \mathrm{SF}_{4}, \mathrm{SiF}_{4}, \mathrm{BF}_{4}^{-}, \mathrm{BrF}_{4}^{-},\left[\mathrm{Cu}\left(\mathrm{NH}_{3}\right)_{4}\right]^{2+},\left[\mathrm{FeCl}_{4}\right]^{2-},\left[\mathrm{PtCl}_{4}\right]^{2-}$
Explanation:
$\mathrm{SF}_4 \rightarrow$ See saw
$\mathrm{SiF}_4 \rightarrow$ Tetrahedral
$\mathrm{BF}_4^{-} \rightarrow$ Tetrahedral
$\left[\mathrm{Cu}\left(\mathrm{NH}_3\right)_4\right]^{2+} \rightarrow$ Square planar
$\left[\mathrm{FeCl}_4\right]^{2-} \rightarrow$ Tetrahedral
$\left[\mathrm{PtCl}_4\right]^{2-} \rightarrow$ Square planar
$\mathrm{BrF}_4^{-} \rightarrow$ Square planar
So, 4 square planer shape compounds are present.

The number of species from the following which have square pyramidal structure is _________
$\mathrm{PF}_{5}, \mathrm{BrF}_{4}^{-}, \mathrm{IF}_{5}, \mathrm{BrF}_{5}, \mathrm{XeOF}_{4}, \mathrm{ICl}_{4}^{-}$
Explanation:
A square pyramidal structure has five bonds and one lone pair, making a total of six electron pairs around the central atom. The geometry of such a molecule can be analyzed using the VSEPR theory.
- $\mathrm{PF}_{5}$: 5 bond pairs and 0 lone pairs, so its geometry is trigonal bipyramidal, not square pyramidal.
- $\mathrm{BrF}_{4}^{-}$: 4 bond pairs and 2 lone pairs, so its geometry is square planar, not square pyramidal.
- $\mathrm{IF}_{5}$: 5 bond pairs and 1 lone pair, so its geometry is square pyramidal.
- $\mathrm{BrF}_{5}$: 5 bond pairs and 1 lone pair, so its geometry is square pyramidal.
- $\mathrm{XeOF}_{4}$: 5 bond pairs and 1 lone pair, so its geometry is square pyramidal.
- $\mathrm{ICl}_{4}^{-}$: 4 bond pairs and 2 lone pairs, so its geometry is square planar, not square pyramidal.
So the number of species from the given list that have a square pyramidal structure is 3.
$\mathrm{XeF}_{2}, \mathrm{I}_{3}^{+}, \mathrm{C}_{3} \mathrm{O}_{2}, \mathrm{I}_{3}^{-}, \mathrm{CO}_{2}, \mathrm{SO}_{2}, \mathrm{BeCl}_{2}$ and $\mathrm{BCl}_{2}^{\ominus}$
