Question

Which of the two ions from the list given below, have the geometry that is explained by the same hybridisation of orbitals NO- 2 ,NO3- , NH2- , NH4+,SCN - ? (A) NH4+ and NO3-  (B) SCN- and NH2- (C)  NO2- and NH2-  (D)  NO2- and NO3-

NO 2-and NO 3-both have same hybridisation, i.e. s p2 hybridisation and other given orbitals is as follows: NH 2- - s p3 -hybridisation NH 4+ - s p3 -hybridisation SCN -- s p-hybridisation

Q. Which of the two ions from the list given below, have the geometry that is explained by the same hybridisation of orbitals $N O_{2}^{-}, N O_{3}^{-}, N H_{2}^{-}, N H_{4}^{+}, SC N^{-} ?$

$N H_{4}^{+}$ and $N O_{3}^{-}$

$SC N^{-}$ and $N H_{2}^{-}$

$N O_{2}^{-}$ and $N H_{2}^{-}$

$N O_{2}^{-}$ and $N O_{3}^{-}$

$N O_{2}^{-}$ and $N O_{3}^{-}$ both have same hybridisation, i.e. $s p^{2}$ hybridisation and other given orbitals is as follows :
$N H_{2}^{-} - s p^{3}$ -hybridisation
$N H_{4}^{+} - s p^{3}$ -hybridisation
$SC N^{-}$ - $s p$ -hybridisation

Q. 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−?

NH4+​ and NO3−​

SCN− and NH2−​

NO2−​ and NH2−​

NO2−​ and NO3−​
