Among the given hydrides, PH₅ does not exist.
- In PH₅, hybridization is absent because the electronegativity difference between hydrogen and phosphorus is not sufficient for bond formation and the compound formed is highly unstable. So, the PH₅ disassociates into PH₃ and H₂.
- While the rest of the given hydrides, NH₃, H₂S, and PH₃ are known to exist in nature because they have stable bonds.
