{ClF}_3

has

\mathrm{T}

-shape structure.

Reason : It has two lone pair arrange at

180^{\circ}

(Angle).

View answer and explanation

Correct option: C

If Assertion is True but the Reason is False

The correct answer is C (If Assertion is True but the Reason is False) because

{ClF}_3

does have a T-shape structure, but the two lone pairs are arranged in the equatorial positions to minimize repulsion, not at 180 degrees.
