Sulphur has 6 valence electrons and each fluoride has 7 valence electrons. The central atom sulphur will thus share one electron with all the four fluoride ions and thus make four bonds. A lone pair of electrons (two electrons) is left on the sulphur atom. Thus, the sulphur atom is surrounded by five electron pairs, four bond pairs and one lone pair. Having five electron pairs surrounding sulphur, it will have a trigonal bipyramidal geometry with sp³d hybridization</p><p><strong> (ii)</strong> IF₅has the total of 42 valence shell electrons, 7 valence electrons in iodine and 7 in each of the fluoride ions. The central iodine atom will thus make five sigma bonds with chlorine and a lone pair of electrons will be left on the iodine atom. The six electron pairs thus will have a hybridization of sp³d² and octahedral geometry.</p><p><strong> (iii)</strong> In NO₂^+, nitrogen forms two sigma bonds and two pi-bonds with the oxygen atom. The oxygen atoms are arranged in an angle of 180° with the nitrogen atoms. The s-orbital of the nitrogen forms a hybrid with the p-orbital of the nitrogen atom, thereby forming two sp hybridized hybrid orbitals, having a linear geometry.</p><p><strong> (iv)</strong> NH₄⁺ has the total of 8 valence electrons. Due to the presence of positive charge, nitrogen has 4 valence electrons and hydrogen has one in every four hydrogen atoms. The four valence electrons in nitrogen make sigma bonds with the four hydrogen atoms, thereby making a tetrahedral geometry and having 3 sp hybridized orbitals.</p>
