8. Ans.(c) A-iii, B-iv, C-ii, D-i

9. Ans.(b)
CO2 ⟹ sp2 hybridisation, bond angle = 180°

GARIMAGOEL07 GARIMA GOEL GARIMA GOEL BIOLOGY

NH4+ ⟹ sp3 hybridisation, bond angle = 109° 28'
NH3 ⟹ sp3 hybridisation with one lone pair on central atom, bond angle ≃ 107°
H2O ⟹ sp3 hybridisation with two lone pairs on central atom, bond angle ≃ 104.5°

10. Ans.(a)
In general, interhalogen compounds are more reactive than halogens (except fluorine).
This is because X-X' bond in interhalogens is weaker than X-X bond in halogens
excepts F-F bond. Therefore I-Cl is more reactive than I2 because of weaker I-Cl bond
then I-I bond.

29. Ans.(a)
Intramolecular hydrogen bonding takes place within the same molecule i.e., between

occurs.

tetrahedral shape.
I3+ have 2 lone pairs with bent/angular shape. BiCl5 does not exists because of inert
