Question

Which of the two ions from the list given below, have the geometry that is explained by the same hybridisation of orbitals NO2-, NO3-, NH2-, NH4+, SCN- ?

Options

A.NH4+ and NH3-
B.SCN- and NH2-
C.NO2- and NH2-
D.NO2- and NO3-

Solution

NO2- → sp2 
NO3- → sp2 
NH2- → sp3 
NH4+ → sp3 
SCN- → sp
NO2- and NO3- both have the same hybridisation.
