Question

$L{i}_{3}N+H_{2}O\to A\text{(gas)}$
$L{i}_{2}C{O}_3\stackrel{\Delta }{\to }B\text{(gas)}$
Hybridisation of the central atom in $A$ and $B$ respectively:

• A. $s{p}^3,sp$
• B. $s{p}^2,s{p}^3$
• C. $sp,sp$
• D. $s{p}^3,s{p}^3$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $s{p}^3,sp$

$L{i}_{3}N+3H_{2}O\to 3LiOH+\underset{A}{N{H}_3}\left(g\right)$



$L{i}_{2}C{O}_3\stackrel{\Delta }{\to }L{i}_{2}O+\underset{B}{C{O}_2}\left(g\right)\text{Hybridisation of C in}C{O}_2\text{is}spO=\underset{\underset{sp}{\downarrow }}{C}=O$
