In this molecule `C-N-C` bond angle is `108^@`. The hybridization and shape of the above molecule are

A

`sp^3` pyramidal

B

`sp^3` tetrahedral

C

`sp^2` angular

D

`sp^2` pyramidal

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

In this molecule, there are 3 bond pairs and a lone pair, so hybridization is `sp^3` because of the involvement of 4 pairs of electrons. Howerver. Presence ofa lone pair, changes its geometry from tetrahedral to pyramidal
