Question

what is hybridization of NH4​

Answer 1

Explanation:

In NH4+ ion, there is no pi bond . There have four electron containing orbital in outer most shell of N atom. All electron containing atomic orbital of outer most shell of N atom are participate in hybridization. As a result hybridization of central N atom is sp3.

Answer 2

Answer:

NH₄ is SP₃ hybridized.

Explanation:

To detect the hybridization, we can refer to the given formula.

Hybridization=1/2[V+M-C+A]

Where,

V = Number of valence electrons,

M = Monovalent

C = Positive charge

A = Negative charge

By putting the values in the above-mentioned formula we get,

Hybridization= 1/2[5+4-1+0]

                     = 4

The number came out to be 4, So we can say that it is SP₃ hybridized. The credible molecular geometry for SP₃ hybridized center atoms is tetrahedral.
