Question

Which of the two ions from the list given below that have the geometry that is explained by the same hybridization of orbitals, NO2-,NO3-,NH2-,NH4+,SCN- ? (A) NO2- and NO3- (B) NH4+ and NO3- (C) SCN- and NH2- (D) NO2- and NH2-

Redistribution of the energy of orbitals of individual atoms to give orbital of equivalent energy happens when two atomic orbitals combine to form hybrid orbital in a molecule. This process is called hybridization. Ions Hybridization NO2- sp2 NO3- sp2 NH2- sp3 NH4+ sp3 SCN- sp

Ions	Hybridization
$N O_{2}^{-}$	$s p^{2}$
$N O_{3}^{-}$	$s p^{2}$
$N H_{2}^{-}$	$s p^{3}$
$N H_{4}^{+}$	$s p^{3}$
$SC N^{-}$	sp
