Question

Match the species given in Column I with the hybridisation given in Column II.

Column I	Column II
(i) Boron in [B(OH)4]–	(a) sp2
(ii) Aluminium in [Al(H2O)6]3+	(b) sp3
(iii) Boron in B2H6	(c) sp3d2
(iv) Carbon in Buckminsterfullerene
(v) Silicon in SiO44-
(vi) Germanium in [GeCl6]2-

Answer 1

(i)→ (b), (ii) → (c), (iii) → (b), (iv) → (a) (v)→(b) (vi)→(c)
