In which one of the following pairs the central atoms exhibit sp2sp2 hybridization ?JEE Main 2024 (09 Apr Shift 1)AH2OH2O and NO2NO2BBF3 and NO−2BF3 and NO2−CNH−2NH2− and H2OH2ODNH−2NH2− and BF3

The central atom in H2O is Oxygen (O) and in NO2 is Nitrogen (N). The hybridization of Oxygen in H2O is sp3 and Nitrogen in NO2 is sp2. So, H2O and NO2 do not both exhibit sp2 hybridization.

The central atom in BF3 is Boron (B) and in NO2- is Nitrogen (N). The hybridization of Boron in BF3 is sp2 and Nitrogen in NO2- is also sp2. So, BF3 and NO2- both exhibit sp2 hybridization.

The central atom in NH2- is Nitrogen (N) and in H2O is Oxygen (O). The hybridization of Nitrogen in NH2- is sp3 and Oxygen in H2O is sp3. So, NH2- and H2O do not both exhibit sp2 hybridization.

The central atom in NH2- is Nitrogen (N) and in BF3 is Boron (B). The hybridization of Nitrogen in NH2- is sp3 and Boron in BF3 is sp2. So, NH2- and BF3 do not both exhibit sp2 hybridization.

Therefore, the pair that both central atoms exhibit sp2 hybridization is BF3 and NO2-.
