Explanation:
Formula to calculate hybridization is as follows.
Hybridization =
where,
V = number of valence electrons present in central atom
N = number of monovalent atoms bonded to central atom
C = charge of cation
A = charge of anion
So, hybridization of is as follows.
Hybridization =
=
= 2
Hybridization of is sp. Therefore,
is a linear molecule. There will be only two electron groups through which Be is attached.
Similarly, hybridization of is calculated as follows.
Hybridization =
=
= 5
Therefore, hybridization of is
is also a linear molecule. Though there are three lone pair of electrons present on a xenon atom and it is further attached with fluorine atoms through two electron pairs. Hence, there are in total five electron groups.
Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options is the correct examples of linear molecules for five electron groups.
Take the attached picture of a periodic table as a guide. You are finding for a solid metal. Therefore, streamline your choices by looking at elements written in black bold letters, because they are all solid. Next, if you look at the center, the legend for metals are colors in orange, yellow, flesh, lavender, pink, and cyan blue. These region would be your choices. Next, you want to find a metal that is shiny and ductile. The shiny appearance is a common characteristic of luster by materials. Ductility is the ability of a metal to stretch when under tensile stress. These properties are best exhibited by metals in the transitions metals colored in pink. Therefore, the answer to your question would be any of the metal in the pink area. Examples are Titanium, Chromium, Gold, Silver, Platinum, Tungsten, etc.
