SATHEE: Chemical Bonding and Molecular Structure

Chemical Bonding and Molecular Structure - Result Question 54

####55. Some of the properties of the two species, $N O_{3}^{-}$ and $H_{3} O^{+}$ are described below. Which one of them is correct?

[2010]

(a) Similar in hybridization for the central atom with different structures.

(b) Dissimilar in hybridization for the central atom with different structures.

(d) Isostructural with different hybridization for the central atom.

Show Answer

Solution:

(b) In $N O_{3}^{-}$ , nitrogen is in $s p^{2}$ hybridisation, thus planar in shape. In $H_{3} O^{+}$ , oxygen is in $s p^{3}$ hybridisation, thus trigonal pyramidal in shape.
