The molecular geometry of (NH2)-1 is
| Linear | ||
| tetrahedral | ||
| angular | ||
| trigonal planar | ||
| t-shaped |
Answer
Answer: Angular shape
The number of bond pairs in NH2- are 2 and
the number of lone pairs is 2 so the structure is bent. Therefore,
the geometry is Angular.
NH₂⁻ ion has a total of 8 valence electrons.
It has a hybridization of sp3 and it contains 2 lone pairs. So
due to the repulsion between the two lone pairs this acquire a
shape of V.
