NEETChemistryp Block Elements (Group 13 & 14)
The HNH angle value is higher than HPH, HAsH, and HSbH angles. Why? [Hint Can be explained on the basis of sp 3 hybridization in NH 3 and only s–p bonding between hydrogen and other elements of the group].
Options
- ANH 3 forms stronger bonds with hydrogen.
- BNH 3 has a higher electronegativity.
- CNH 3 undergoes sp 3 hybridization.
- DNH 3 forms a larger number of bonds.
Correct answer
C. NH 3 undergoes sp 3 hybridization.
Step-by-step solution
Correct Option is : (C) NH 3 undergoes sp 3 hybridization.
