Question

(B) In $NH_4^+$,the nitrogen atom undergoes $sp^3$ hybridization and has no lone pair of electrons,resulting in a tetrahedral bond angle of $109^\circ

Vedclass · Accepted Answer

$NH_4^+$

Vedclass · Answer

(B) In $NH_4^+$,the nitrogen atom undergoes $sp^3$ hybridization and has no lone pair of electrons,resulting in a tetrahedral bond angle of $109^\circ 28'$. In $NH_3$,the presence of one lone pair reduces the bond angle to $107^\circ$. In $PCl_3$,the bond angle is approximately $100^\circ$ due to the larger size of the central atom and lone pair repulsion. In $SCl_2$,the bond angle is approximately $103^\circ$. Therefore,$NH_4^+$ has the maximum bond angle.
