The correct Answer is:
To determine the best three-dimensional view of the `overset(Theta)NH_(2)` ion (which is the amide ion, `NH2-`), we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Atomic Structure**: - The atomic number of nitrogen (N) is 7. Its electronic configuration is `1s² 2s² 2p³`. - Since the ion has a negative charge, we add one more electron, making the configuration `2p⁴`. 2. **Determine the Hybridization**: - In the `NH2-` ion, nitrogen is bonded to two hydrogen atoms. The nitrogen atom has one unpaired electron that will form bonds with the hydrogen atoms. - The hybridization of nitrogen in this ion is `sp³` because it has four regions of electron density (two bonding pairs with hydrogen and two lone pairs). 3. **Draw the Lewis Structure**: - The Lewis structure of `NH2-` shows nitrogen in the center with two hydrogen atoms bonded to it and two lone pairs of electrons on nitrogen. - The structure can be represented as: ``` H \ N : : / H ``` 4. **Visualize the 3D Geometry**: - The `sp³` hybridization leads to a tetrahedral arrangement of electron pairs. - However, since there are two lone pairs, they will occupy more space and push the bonding pairs closer together. - The resulting molecular geometry is bent or V-shaped due to the repulsion between the lone pairs. 5. **Select the Best 3D View**: - The best three-dimensional representation of the `NH2-` ion will depict the nitrogen atom at the center with the two hydrogen atoms forming a bond angle of less than 109.5° (approximately 104.5°) due to the presence of the lone pairs. - The lone pairs will be positioned in a way that they are as far apart as possible, typically in the equatorial positions of a tetrahedral arrangement. ### Conclusion: The best three-dimensional view of the `NH2-` ion is a bent structure with nitrogen at the center, two hydrogen atoms bonded to it, and two lone pairs of electrons positioned to minimize repulsion. ---
