The molecule having three fold axis of symmetry is :

A

`NH_(3)`

B

`C_(2)H_(4)`

C

`CO_(2)`

D

`SO_(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

In `NH_(3)` molecule, the original appearance is repeated as a result of rotation through `120^(@)` . Such a axis is said to be an axis of three-fold symmetry or a triad axis.
