In which of the following conversions there are changes of hybridisation and shape-

Answer»

`CH_(4) to C_(2)H_(6)`
`NH_(3) to NH_(4)^(o+)`
`BF_(3) to BF_(4)^(Theta)`
`H_(2)O to H_(3)O^(o+)`

Solution :`BF_(3)` molecule exhibits trigonal planar geometry with each F-B-F bond ANGLE `120^(@)`. B ATOM is `sp^(2)` hybridised.

`BF_(4)^(-)` on the other hand exhibits tetrahedral geometry with each F-B-F bond angle `109.5^(@)`. B-atom is `sp^(3)`-hybridised.
