Solution
The correct option is
A
s
p
,
s
p
2
,
s
p
a. The structure of
N
−
3
is:
The steric number of the central nitrogen atom is 2 (two sigma bond).
Thus, it is
s
p
hybridised.
b. The structure of
N
O
C
l
is:
So the steric number of the central nitrogen atom is 3 (two sigma bonds and one lone pair of electrons). Thus, it is
s
p
2
hybridised.
c. The possible structure of
N
2
O
is:
In this structure, the steric number of the central
N
atom is 2 (two sigma bonds). Thus, the central
N
atom is
s
p
hybridised.
