What is the hybridization and bond angle in an Ammonia (NH₃) molecule?
sp³, approximately 107°
sp², 120°
sp³, 109.5°
sp³d, 90° and 120°
📝 Detailed explanation
Nitrogen in NH₃ has 3 bonding pairs and 1 lone pair. The electron geometry is tetrahedral (sp³), but the lone pair-bonding pair repulsion reduces the bond angle from 109.5° to about 107°.
