What is the hybridization of the central atom in po(oh)3

Answer : The hybridization of the central atom in  is,

Explanation :

Formula used  :

where,

V = number of valence electrons present in central atom

N = number of monovalent atoms bonded to central atom

C = charge of cation

A = charge of anion

Now we have to determine the hybridization of the given molecule.

The given molecule is,

The number of electron pair are 4 that means the hybridization will be and the electronic geometry of the molecule will be tetrahedral.

Hence, the hybridization of the central atom in  is,

a. energy is absorbed in the reaction.

if in a given reaction the energy of products is greater than the energy of reactants it means that reaction is endothermic and during the reaction, the energy is absorbed by reactants. in an endothermic reaction, the products have more stored chemical energy than the reactants. and in this reaction the reactants are more stable than products before the compounds with less energy are always more stable.

the correct answer to this question is 2
