Q. Consider the following molecules/ions:

S O_{2}, C O_{2}, N_{2} O, O F_{2}, {I C l_{2}}^{-}, {I_{3}}^{-}, N O_{2}, {N O_{2}}^{-}, {N O_{2}}^{+}, {B F_{2}}^{-}, B e C l_{2}, {N_{3}}^{-}, H C N .

Among the above, the number of molecules/ions which are linear is:

N_{2} O, C O_{2}

I_{3}

are isostructral. Reason: All three have same hybridise central atom.

Q. Which of the following is the linear species?

Q. Paragraph:
The trend of metallic properties is not that obvious in group 17. Fluorine is the most electronegative element and has no basic properties. Iodine and Bromine dissolve in oleum and other strong oxidising solvents forming species like

[I_{2}]^{+}

[B r_{2}]^{+}

. Many other species like

[I_{3}]^{+}

[B r_{3}]^{+}

have also been prepared.

The shapes of

[I_{3}]^{+}

[I_{3}]^{-}

respectively are:
