Column I Column II
A. $$
\mathrm{H}_3 \mathrm{O}^{+}
$$
1. Linear
B. $$
\mathrm{HC} \equiv \mathrm{CH}
$$
2. Angular
C. $$
\mathrm{ClO}_2^{-}
$$
3. Tetrahedral
D. NH$$_4^+$$ 4. Trigonal bipyramidal
5. Pyramidal

Explanation

A. $\rightarrow(5)$

B. $\rightarrow$ (1)

C. $\rightarrow(2)$

$\mathrm{D} \rightarrow(3)$

A. $\mathrm{H}_3 \mathrm{O}^{+}=3 b p+1 / p$ pyramidal shape

B. $\mathrm{HC} \equiv \mathrm{CH} \Rightarrow$ linear as sphybridised shape

C. $\mathrm{ClO}_2^{-}=2 b p+2 / p \Rightarrow$ angular shape

D. $\mathrm{NH}_4^{+}=4 b p+0 / p \Rightarrow$ tetrahedral shape
