Which hybridization of orbitals is present in beryllium fluoride, BeF2?

Chemistry
1 answer:
alisha [4.7K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer is: beryllium fluoride has sp hybridization.

Beryllium (Be) is metal from group 2 and fluorine (F) is nonmetal from group 17.

Electron configuration of beryllium atom: ₄Be: 1s² 2s².

Electron configuration of fluorine atom: ₉F 1s² 2s² 2p⁵.

In beryllium, one electron from 2s orbital gets excitted to the level of 2p orbital; s and p orbital are hybridized and form two sp-hybridised  orbitals arranged in a linear shape.

Two fluorine atoms come closer to beryllium atom and sp hybridised orbitals of Be and p orbital of F get overlapped with each other and make bonds.

Calculate the cfse for a d^3 system in an octahedral field in units of ∆_o. In other words, do not enter "∆_o" with your answer.
Rudik [331]

Magnetic moment (spin only) of octahedral complex having CFSE=−0.8Δo and surrounded by weak field ligands can be : Q

To answer this, the Crystal Field Stabilization Energy has to be calculated for a (d3 metal in both configurations. The geometry with the greater stabilization will be the preferred geometry. So for tetrahedral d3, the Crystal Field Stabilization Energy is: CFSE = -0.8 x 4/9 Δo = -0.355 Δo.

[Co(CN)64-] is also an octahedral d7 complex but it contains CN-, a strong field ligand. Its orbital occupancy is (t2g)6(eg)1 and it therefore has one unpaired electron. In this case the CFSE is −(6)(25)ΔO+(1)(35)ΔO+P=−95ΔO+P.

The crystal field stabilization energy (CFSE) (in kJ/mol) for complex, [Ti(H2O)6]3+. According to CFT, the first absorption maximum is obtained at 20,3000cm−1 for the transition.
