The type of hybridization and no. of lone pair(s) of electron of X e in X e O F 4 , respectively, are:

The type of hybridization and no. of lone pair(s) of electron of

X e

in

X e O F_{4}

, respectively, are:

$s p^{3} d^{2}$ and $1$
$s p^{3} d^{2}$ and $2$
$s p^{3} d$ and $2$
$s p^{3} d$ and $1$

Solution

Steric no. $= 6,$ hybridisation $= s p^{3} d^{2}$

No. of lone pairs on $X e = 1$
