Find the number of pair(s) in which 1 s t species have high percentage p -character in orbital used by "M" for M–H bond formation (M = Central atom). (CH₃⁺, CH₄) (CH₄, SiH₄) (NH₃, AsH₃) (H₂O, H₂S) (PH

Question

Find the number of pair(s) in which 1 s t species have high percentage p -character in orbital used by "M" for M–H bond formation (M = Central atom). (CH₃⁺, CH₄) (CH₄, SiH₄) (NH₃, AsH₃) (H₂O, H₂S) (PH₄⁺, PH₃) (CH₄, NH₃) (PH₃, NH₃)

TestHub · Accepted Answer

Hybridization and electronegativity determine p-character. Only (CH₃⁺, CH₄) has the first species with higher p-character.
