Solution

The correct option is D SO3,C2H4
SO2 : trigonal planar ; three sp2-hybrid orbitals
CH4 : tetrahedral ; four sp3-hybrid orbitals
SO3 : Trigonal planar ; three sp2-hybrid orbitals
C2H4 : Trigonal planar ; three sp2-hybrid orbitals
BF3 : Trigonal planar ; three sp2-hybrid orbitals
SF4 : Irregular tetrahedral ; five sp3d-hybrid orbitals
I3 : near five sp3d-hybrid orbitals
