Answer:

sp^{3} on N overlaps with 1s on H.

Explanation:

Hybridization of central atom generally can be found by finding the hybridization number.Hybridization number is the sum of number of lone pairs and number of sigma bonds.

If hybridization number is 2 then the central atom is sp hybridized.

If it is 3 it is sp^{2} hybridized.

If it is 4 it is sp^{3} hybridized and so on.

Here in NH_{3} molecule there are 3 sigma bonds and one lone pair(see the figure attached).

Hence hybridization number is 4 and hence it is sp^{3} hybridized.

And in case of hydrogen atom the only electron of it resides in the 1s orbital.

Therefore sp^{3} on N overlaps with 1s on H.

When utilizing a transmission electron microscope, why is it necessary to stain the specimen with heavy metal salts?
Schach [20]
Staining specimen with heavy metal salts (e.g. tungsten, molybdenum) allows you to see the specimen better with higher contrast when electron beam deflects off of your sample.

19. If it takes more energy to break the bonds of the reactants than is released when the bonds of
frozen [14]

Answer:

If it takes more energy to break the original bonds than is released when the new bonds are formed, then the net energy of the reaction is negative. This means that energy must be pumped into the system to keep the reaction going. Such reactions are known as endothermic.
