The hybridisation of atomic orbitals of ...

The hybridisation of atomic orbitals of nitrogen in `NO_2^(+), NO_3^(-)` and `NH_4^(+)` are

A

`sp, sp^2` and `sp^3` respectively

B

`sp, sp^3` and `sp^2` respectively

C

`sp^2, sp` and `sp^3` respectively

D

`sp^2, sp^3` and sp respectively.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
The shapes of `NO_2^(+), NO_3^(-)` and `NH_4^(+)` are linear, trigonal planar and tetrahedral, respectively. Thus, the hybridisation of atomic orbitals of nitrogen in these species are sp, `sp^2` and `sp^3` respectively.
