The hybridizations of nitrogen in NF₃ and NH₃are ________ and ________,respectively. A)sp², sp² B)sp, sp³ C)sp³, sp D)sp³, sp³ E)sp², sp³

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In NF3, nitrogen forms three sigma bonds with fluorine atoms and has one lone pair, leading to sp3 hybridization. In NH3, nitrogen also forms three sigma bonds (with hydrogen atoms) and has one lone pair, resulting in sp3 hybridization for nitrogen in both molecules.
