Case Study Question:
The relative location of the bond pair and the lone pair is decided by Bent's rule. The rule states that the more electronegative atom prefers to stay in the orbital having less s character while the lone pair prefers to stay in the orbital having more s character. In molecules with trigonal bipyramidal (TBP) geometry, the more electronegative atom prefers the axial position while the lone pair prefers the equatorial position.
