Predict the hybridization about the central atom in the given structure. A molecule with atom Y single bonded with 3 X substituents. The Y atom has one lone pair.

answer: option (b) is the correct answer.

explanation:

a covalent bond is formed by sharing of electrons. whereas polarity arises due to difference in electronegativity of two atoms.

therefore, more is the electronegativity of an atom which combines with the titanium, more readily it will induce a partial positive and negative charge.

thus, out of the given options fluorine is most electronegative and has an incomplete octet. therefore, it will readily combine with titanium to share the electrons and complete its octet.  

give me abc and i will get it for u.

it is stable as it is in group 0 which have full outer shells of electrons
