Question

If Phosphorus have .... 3s2 and 3p3 orbitals and it doenot hybridise
why does Nitrogen having 2s2 2p3 does ?

Both should do pure p orbital combination so why does nitrogen undergoes hybridisation while Phosphorus doesnot

The valence-bond concept of orbital hybridization can be extrapolated to other atoms including nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, and sulfur. In other compounds, covalent bonds that are formed can be described using hybrid orbitals.
