A

sp

B

`sp^(2)`

C

`sp^(3)`

D

no hybridization

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Amines are organic derivatives of ammonia in which one two or all three hydrogen atoms have been replaced by alkyl or aryl groups . In ammonia nitrogen atom is `sp^(3)` hydridized

    In which transformation the change of hydridization and shape about underlined atom take place?

    Read the paragraph carefully and answer the following questions: The property of hydrides of p-block elements mostly depends on (i) (electronegativity difference between central atom and hydrogen.. (ii) size of central atom and (iii)number of valence electrons in central atom. Some undergo hydrolysis in which central atom is less electronegative, Teal with OH to give hydrogen. While acidic property of hydride in a period depends on electronegativity of central atoms, I.e. more electronegative is the atom, more acidic is hydride. In a group, acidic property is proportional to the size of central atom. Some electron deficient hydride behaves as Lewis acid while only one hydride of an element in pblock behaves as Lewis base with lone pair of electrons Hydrides in which central atoms electronegativity is close to hydrogen has no reaction with water. QThe hydride which do not react with water is
