As per your syllabus, SF₆ uses what hybridisation, and gives what geometry?
Asp³d; trigonal bipyramidal
Bsp; linear
Csp³; tetrahedral
Dsp³d²; regular octahedron
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. sp³d²; regular octahedron
As per your syllabus, SF₆ sp³d²
→ regular octahedron. All S-F angles 90°.
Six equivalent S-F sigma bonds.
