    \[s{{p}^{3}}-\]hybridisation is not found in:

    A) \[{{H}_{2}}O\]                  

    B) \[C{{H}_{4}}\]   

    C)        \[BC{{l}_{3}}\]  

    D)        \[N{{H}_{3}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Key Idea: Hybridisation\[=\frac{1}{2}\] [no. of electron in valence shell + no. of monovalent atoms charge on cation + charge on anion] (a)\[{{H}_{2}}O\] \[H=\frac{1}{2}(6+2+0-0)\] \[=\frac{8}{4}=4\]                 \[\therefore \]  \[s{{p}^{3}}\]hybridisation                 (b) \[C{{H}_{4}}\]                                 \[H=\frac{1}{2}(4+4+0-0)\] \[=\frac{8}{4}=4\]                 \[\therefore \]  \[s{{p}^{3}}\]hybridisation                 (c) \[BC{{l}_{3}}\]                                 \[H=\frac{1}{2}(3+3+0-0)\]                                 \[=\frac{6}{2}=3\]                 \[\therefore \]\[s{{p}^{2}}\]hybridisation.                 (d) \[N{{H}_{3}}\]                                 \[H=\frac{1}{2}(5+3+0-0)\]                                                 \[=\frac{8}{2}=4\] \[\therefore \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,s{{p}^{3}}\]hybridisation. \[\therefore \]  (c) is correct answer.
