QNEET-2016-Ch-1122: NEET 2016 Chemistry - Class 11 NEET-2016-Ch-1122 Solution: The hybridizations of atomic orbitals of nitrogen in \(NO_2^+…
The hybridizations of atomic orbitals of nitrogen in and respectively are sp and and sp and sp and
Multiple Choice Options
- A sp, sp 3 and sp 2
- B sp 2 , sp 3 and sp 3
- C sp, sp 2 and sp 3
- D sp 2 , sp and sp 3
Step-by-Step Verified Solution
X = 1 2 (VE + MA - c + a)
For N O 2 + , X = 1 2 (5 + 0 - 1) = 2, so sp hybridisation
For N O 3 _ , X = 1 2 (5 + 0 + 1) = 3, so sp 2 hybridisation
For N H 4 + , X = 1 2 (5 + 4 - 1) = 4, so sp 3 hybridisation
