Question

The hybridization of P is PO₄³⁻ is the same as of
(a) S in SO₃ (b) N in NO⁻₃
(c) I in ICl⁺₂ (d) I in ICl₄⁻

Answer 1

S in SO3

• In PO4 3- P has a hybridization of sp2 which is same as that of S in SO3
• hence the answer is s in so3
• so i think you have got your answer.
• you might thank me for answering if you like.
• the question was a very good one.
• i encourage you to ask such questions more often
• Thank you.
