Question

 The electron of Nitrogen participating in the resonance in pyridine is present in which orbital?

1 point

p-orbital

sp2-orbital

sp3-orbital

sp -orbital

​

Answer 1

Answer:

p orbital

The ring atoms in the pyridine molecule are sp2-hybridized. The nitrogen is involved in the π-bonding aromatic system using its unhybridized p orbital.

Answer 2

The electron of Nitrogen participating in the resonance in pyridine is present in $sp2-orbital$

Explanation:

• The electron of Nitrogen which is participating in the resonance in pyridine is present in the sp2 orbital.
• In pyridine, there are three sp2 orbitals.
• One of these is a hybrid orbital in which one electron is used for π overlapping.
• the ring in the pyridine molecule is  sp2-hybridized, where the nitrogen is involved in the π-bonding which uses the unhybridized p orbital.
• In pyridine nitrogen atoms are in sp2 hybridization and have five resonance structures.
