The hybridisations of N -orbitals in NO ₃⁻, NO ₂⁻ and NH ₄⁺ respectively are
Options
- As p^2, s p^2, s p^3
- Bs p, s p^3, s p^2
- Cs p, s p^2, s p^3
- Ds p^2, s p, s p^3
Correct answer
A. s p^2, s p^2, s p^3
Step-by-step solution
As we know, Hybridisation = 1 2 [V+M-C+A] aligned H _ NO ₃⁻ & = 1 2 [5+0-0+1] & =3 i.e. s p^2 H _ NO ₂⁻ & = 1 2 [5+0-0+1] & =3 i.e. s p^2 H _ NH ₄⁺ & = 1 2 [5+4-1+0] & =4 i.e. s p^3 aligned The hybridisation of N in NO ₃⁻, NO ₂⁻ and NH ₄⁺ are s p^2, s p^2 and s p^3 respectively.
