The hybridization of atomic orbitals of ...

The hybridization of atomic orbitals of nitrogen is `NO_(2)^(+), NO_(3)^(-)`, and `NH_(4)^(+)` respectively are

A

sp, `sp^(3)` and `sp^(2)`

B

sp, `sp^(2)` and `sp^(3)`

C

`sp^(2)`, sp and `sp^(3)`

D

`sp^(2)`, `sp^(3)` and sp

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
b) The type of hybrid orbitals of nitrogen can be decided by using VSEPR theory counting bp and as ip in
`NO_(2)^(-)`=2 bp+0 ip=linear = sp hybridised
`NO_(3)^(-)=3` bp+0 ip `rArr sp^(2)` hybridised
`NH_(4)^(+)` bp+0 ip`rArr sp^(3)` hybridised.
