Question Number 23146 by Tinkutara last updated on 26/Oct/17

Square planar complex is formed by  hybridisation of which atomic orbitals?  (1) s, p_x , p_y , p_z   (2) s, p_x , p_y , d_z^2    (3) s, p_x , p_y , d_(x^2 −y^2 )   (4) s, p_x , p_y , d_z^3

actually square planar compex   has hybridisation dsp^2 .  so going by option only 2 and 3   satisfy and d_z_ ^3   is nothing....

Doesn′t square planar has sp^3 ? This  means 4σ bonds and 0 lone pairs. And  answer is only (3).

square planar and square planar  complex are different .  square planar has hybridization   sp^3 d^2 . eg: XeF_4  .

$$\mathrm{square}\:\mathrm{planar}\:\mathrm{and}\:\mathrm{square}\:\mathrm{planar} \\ $$$$\mathrm{complex}\:\mathrm{are}\:\mathrm{different}\:. \\ $$$$\mathrm{square}\:\mathrm{planar}\:\mathrm{has}\:\mathrm{hybridization}\: \\ $$$$\mathrm{sp}^{\mathrm{3}} \mathrm{d}^{\mathrm{2}} .\:\mathrm{eg}:\:\mathrm{XeF}_{\mathrm{4}} \:. \\ $$

XeF_4  has 2 axial lone pairs also. So why  this is square planar? It should be  bipyramidal.

$$\mathrm{XeF}_{\mathrm{4}} \:\mathrm{has}\:\mathrm{2}\:\mathrm{axial}\:\mathrm{lone}\:\mathrm{pairs}\:\mathrm{also}.\:\mathrm{So}\:\mathrm{why} \\ $$$$\mathrm{this}\:\mathrm{is}\:\mathrm{square}\:\mathrm{planar}?\:\mathrm{It}\:\mathrm{should}\:\mathrm{be} \\ $$$$\mathrm{bipyramidal}. \\ $$
