Linear Geometry Molecules | JEE Main PYQ | Chemical Bonding
The number of molecules/ions that show linear geometry among the following is ________.

SO2, BeCl2, CO2, N3−, NO2, F2O, XeF2, NO2+, I3−, O3

Correct Answer: 6

Explanation

Linear geometry species are:

BeCl2, CO2, N3−, XeF2, NO2+, I3−

SO2, NO2, F2O and O3 are bent molecules.

Hence, total number of linear molecules/ions = 6
