Which of the following species has a linear shape?

A

`NO_2^(-)`

B

`SO_2`

C

`NO_2^(+)`

D

`O_3`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`overset+NO_2` has linear shape due to sp hybridisation of N in `overset+NO_2`
`O=overset+N=O`
While `SO_2, NO_2^-` and `O_3` have angular shape
