Detailed Solution

In N2O5, there is one cationic part, NO2+ and one anionic part, NO3-.

NO2+ is a nitronium ion that has sp hybridization and a linear shape. Its bond angle is 180°. NO3- is nitrate ion and has sp2 hybridization with three bond pairs. Its bond angle is 120°.

Difference between the bond angle of the cationic and anionic parts of N2O5 is 60°180°-120°.
