Answer:
Electron-pair geometry: tetrahedral
Molecular geometry: trigonal pyramidal
Hybridization: sp³
sp³ - 4 p
Explanation:
There is some info missing. I think this is the original question.
<em>For NBr₃, What are its electron-pair and molecular geometries? What is the hybridization of the nitrogen atom? What orbitals on N and Br overlap to form bonds between these elements?</em>
<em>The N-Br bonds are formed by the overlap of the ___ hybrid orbitals on nitrogen with ___ orbitals on Br.</em>

Nitrogen is a central atom surrounded by 4 electron domains. According to VESPR, the corresponding electron-pair geometry is tetrahedral.
Of these 4 electron domains, 3 represent covalent bonds with Br and 1 lone pair. According to VESPR, the corresponding molecular geometry is trigonal pyramidal.
In the nitrogen atom, 1 s orbital and 3 p orbitals hybridize to form 4 sp³ orbitals for each of the electron domains.
The N-Br bonds are formed by the overlap of the sp³ hybrid orbitals on nitrogen with 4p orbitals on Br.
Answer: Endothermic reaction
Explanation:
Exothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy of the product is lesser than the energy of the reactants. The total energy is released in the form of heat and
for the reaction comes out to be negative.
Endothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy of the product is greater than the energy of the reactants. The total energy is absorbed in the form of heat and
for the reaction comes out to be positive.
As the energy of reactants is 180 kJ and that of products is 300 kJ, the energy of products is greater than that of reactants, which means the energy has been absorbed and reaction is endothermic.
The correct answer is: [C]: "Br" {"bromine"} .
