Solution
The correct option is
D
N
2
O
The shape of various molecules are given below:
H
2
O
has a tetrahedral shape due to two
O
−
H
bonds and two lone pair of electrons on oxygen.
H
2
O
2
is bent-shaped.
D
2
O
also has a tetrahedral shape.
D
is an isotope of hydrogen.
N
2
O
is linear-shaped because lone pairs present in it is delocalised due to resonance of electrons.
Hence, the linear molecule is
N
2
O
.
