Question

According to the VSEPR theory, the molecular shape of Sicl4 i A trigonal pyramidal. B. tetrahedral C. trigonal planar. D. bent. E. linear. 56. Which one of the following sets of quantum numbers is not possible? m, Row 14 3-2-12 Row 2 3232 Row 3 300 12 Row 4 4 112 Row 5 2+12 A. Row 3 B. Row 2 C. Row 4 D. Row 5 E. Row 1 amnarature is double

Answer 1

The molecular shape of SiCl4 is B. tetrahedral.

The set of quantum numbers that is not possible is C. Row 3. This is because the maximum value for the magnetic quantum number (m) is equal to the principal quantum number (n) minus 1, and for Row 3, the maximum value of m would be 2. However, the third value in the set (3-2-12) indicates a value of 12 for m, which is not possible.
