Question

State True or False.

${ClO}_3^{+}$ has structure with ${sp}^2$ hybridisation having bond angle of ${120}^{\circ }$.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

The given statement is True.
The central $Cl$ atom in ${ClO}_3^{+}$ has 3 bonding domains and $0$ lone pairs of electrons. $Cl$ atom undergoes $s{p}^2$ hybridisation with triangular planar geometry and bond angle of ${120}^0$.
