Q. The hybridisation of atomic orbital of nitrogen in $ NO_2^{+}, NO_{3}^{-} $ and $ NH_{4}^{+} $ are respectively

AMUAMU 2015Chemical Bonding and Molecular Structure

Solution:

Nitronium ion $(NO_2^{+})$
image
Hybridisation $= sp$
Geometry $=$ linear
Nitrate $(NO_3^-)$
image
Hybridisation $= sp^2$
Geometry $=$ trigonal planar
Ammonium ion $(NH_4^+)$
image
Hybridisation $= sp^3$
Geometry $=$ tetrahedral
