Trisilylamine \( \left[\ddot{\boldsymbol{N}}\left(\boldsymbol{S} \boldsymbol{i} \boldsymbol{H}_{3}\right)_{3}\right] \) has \( \mathbf{a} \)

  1. planer geometry
  2. tetrahedral geometry
  3. pyramidal geometry
  4. none of these

Correct answer: pyramidal geometry

Solution

In trisilylamine, the nitrogen atom has three sigma bonds and one lone pair, giving four electron domains. VSEPR predicts a trigonal pyramidal molecular geometry for this arrangement.
