Ques. 1JEE Main 2026, 6 April (Evening Shift)

Given below are two statements : In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :

  1. Both Statement I and Statement II are true
  2. Both Statement I and Statement II are false
  3. Statement I is true but Statement II is false
  4. Statement I is false but Statement II is true

Answer

(4) Statement I is false but Statement II is true

Solution

Statement I: electrons around S in the Lewis structures

SO2 (O=S=O, one lone pair): 10 electrons

SO3 (three S=O): 12 electrons

SF4 (4 bp + 1 lp): 10 electrons

SF6 (6 bp): 12 electrons

H2S (2 bp + 2 lp): 8 electrons (octet obeyed)

⇒ S does not obey the octet rule in 4 compounds, not 3 ⇒ Statement I is false.

Statement II: lone pairs on the central atom

H2O 2, ClF3 2, SF4 1, NH3 1, BrF5 1, XeF4 2

[H2O, ClF3, SF4] ✗; [NH3, BrF5, SF4] ✓; [BrF5, ClF3, XeF4] ✗; [XeF4, ClF3, H2O] ✗

⇒ Only 1 set ⇒ Statement II is true.

Answer: (4)
