How is the hybridization on B (a nitrogen atom - refer to pic) sp3? I only see 2 bonds? how else can i complete an octet? Could someone explain the answers to me please..i have a day remaining before my exam..im desperate
thanks.

The hydrogen isn't shown and the lone pair isn't shown (for clarity).

First, you should notice that there's a few mistakes in the attached structure. The nitrogen atom labeled B, and the 2 other identical atoms are missing an H-atom that should be attached to them. So, treat them all as NH groups.

Now, you should be able to complete the octet with a lone pair, and that'll make the hybridization be sp3.

Does that make sense?

HT3 is getting this answer in stereo...

Looks like two threads were merged by a Mentor.
