Question

State True or False.

$N{H}_3$ molecule involve $s{p}^3$ hybridisation.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

In $N{H}_3$ molecule nitrogen atom contain $s{p}^3$ hybridisation.

Nitrogen atom electronic configuration is $1s^{2}2s^{2}2p^3$.

One s-orbital and 3p-orbitals undergo $s{p}^3$ hybridisation to form four $s{p}^3$ hybridised orbitals. These combine with 3 hydrogen atoms to form $N{H}_3$ molecule.

So answer is A.
