The number of species from the following in which the central atom usessp3hybrid orbitals in its bonding is _________.

 

NH3, SO2, SiO2, BeCl2, CO2, H2O, CH4, BF3

Answer:
4.00
Solution:

H2O has sp3 hybridisation and angular shape due to 2 lone pair of electrons.

NH3 has sp3  hybridised nitrogen atom and pyramidal shape due to 1 lone pair of electrons.

SiO2 has sp3 hybridised atoms, it is a network solid and the shape is tetrahedral around each silicon atom. 

SO2 has sp2 hybridised sulphur atom and the shape is V-shaped due to 1 lone pair of electrons.

BF3 has sp2 hybridised boron atom and the shape is trigonal planar.

BeCl2sp

CO2sp

CH4sp3

Hence the answer is 4
