In which of the following option, covalent bond is having maximum s% character ?

A

S-H bond in `H_(2)S`

B

P-H bond in `PH_(3)`

C

N-H bond in `NH_(3)`

The hybridisation of atomic orbitals of central atom "Xe" in XeO_(4), XeO_(2)F_(2) and XeOF_(4) respectively.

According to V.B.T., atoms of element form bond only to pair up their unpaired electrons present in ground state or excited state. This pairing of unpaired electron will take place by overlapping of orbitals each one having one unpaired electron with opposite spin. Which of the following combination of orbitals does not from any type of covalent bond (if z-axis is molecular axis)?

Hybridisation is the mixing of atomic orbital of comparable energy and the number of hybrid orbitals formed is equal to the number of pure atomic orbitals mixed up and hybrid orbitals are occupied by sigma -bond pair and lone pair. ''The hybrid orbitals are at at angle of X^(@) to one another''. This statement is not valid for which of the following hybridisation?
