The compound S i H 3 3 N is expected to be
Options
- Apyramidal and more basic than C H 3 3 N
- Bplanar and less basic than C H 3 3 N
- Cpyramidal and less basic than C H 3 3 N
- Dplanar and more basic than C H 3 3 N
Correct answer
B. planar and less basic than C H 3 3 N
Step-by-step solution
S i H 3 3 N is planar and less basic than C H 3 3 N because lone pair of N atom is used in p π - d π back bonding with Si atom.
