Q1 / 160 · TS EAMCET 2003 · Chemistry

Which one of the following is a correct set?

  • Correct answer
    A
    $\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}, s p^3$, angular
  • B
    $\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}, s p^2$, linear
  • C
    $\mathrm{NH}_4^{+}, d s p^2$, square planar
  • D
    $\mathrm{CH}_4 d s p^2$, tetrahedral

Solution

$\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}$ has $s p^3$-hybridisation and is angular in shape.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
