Solution
The correct options are CSO2 and I+3 DICI−2 and BeH2 (A) BeCl2 & CO2 has sp hybridisation and linear geometry. Hence they have same hybridisation.
(B) CO2 has sp hybridisation and linear geometry. SO2 has sp2 hybridisation and bent structure. They have different hybridisation and different shape.
(C) SO2 has sp2 hybridisation and bent structure whereas I+3 has sp3 hybridisation and bent structure. (D)ICl−2 has sp3d hybridisation and linear geometry whereas BeH2 has sp hybridisation and linear geometry. Hence C and D, have different hybridisations but same shape.
