Subjective Type

The total number of $$\angle FIF$$ angles in $$IF_7$$ having the bond angle value of $$90^o$$ is _______.

Solution

The central iodine atom in IF7 undergoes sp3d3 hybridization which results in pentagonal bipyramidal geometry.

Each axial F atom forms five 90o angles with five equatorial F atoms.

Hence, the total number of ∠FIF angles in IF7 having the bond angle value of 90o is 10.
