  • question_answer
    In compound \[X\], all the bond angles are exactly \[{{109}^{o}}28',\,\,X\] is                                        [CBSE PMT 1991]

    A)                 Chloromethane               

    B)                 Iodoform

    C)                 Carbon tetrachloride     

    D)                 Chloroform

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                    Compound is carbontetrachloride because \[CC{{l}_{4}}\] has \[s{{p}^{3}}\]?hybridization 4 orbitals giving regular tetrahedron geometry. In others the geometry is little distorted inspite of \[s{{p}^{3}}\] hybridization due to different atoms on the vertices of tetrahedron.
