Detailed Solution

Fluorine does not form any polyhalide because it does not have d-orbitals in valence shell and in B2 and N2 molecules mixing of s and p atomic orbitals take place statement are correct.

Since fluorine lacks d orbitals in its valence shell, it cannot create any polyhalides. The only orbitals in the second shell will be s and p.

s and p atomic orbitals mingle together in B2 and N2 molecules.

Hence, option C is correct.
